black gold in a white fight won’t you fill up the
tank let's go for a ride
LYRICS:
VERSE:
two boys on a playground
tryin' to push each other down
see the crowd gather 'round
nothing attracts a crowd like a crowd
CHORUS:
black gold in a white fight
fill up the tank let's go for a ride
i don't care about no wheelchair
i got so much left to do with my life
VERSE:
moving backwards through time
never learn,never mind
that side's yours,this side's mine
brother you ain't my kind
CHORUS:
black soldier, white fight
fill up the tank let's go for a ride
sure like to feel some pride
but this place just makes me feel sad inside
[Funky Interlude Part]
[C] [Em]
mother do you know where
your kids are to[D]night...
PLAY RIFF-2 x2:
VERSE:
keep the kids off the street
gives 'em something to do,something to eat
this spot was a playground
this flat land used to be a town
