Black Gold Lyrics by Soul Asylum

Black Gold Lyrics

    Two boys on a playground
    Tryin' to push each other down
    See the crowd gather 'round
    Nothing attracts a crowd like a crowd

    Black gold in a white plight
    Won't you fill up the tank, let's go for a ride
    I don't care 'bout no wheelchair
    I've got so much left to do with my life

    Moving backwards through time
    Never learn, never mind
    That side's yours, this side's mine
    Brother you ain't my kind

    You're a black soldier, white fight
    Won't you 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

    Mother, do you know where your kids are tonight?

    Keeps the kids off the streets
    Gives 'em something to do, something to eat
    This spot was a playground
    This flat land used to be a town

    Black gold in a white plight
    Won't you 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

    Black gold in a white plight
    Won't you fill up the tank, let's go for a ride
    I don't care 'bout no wheelchair
    I've got so much left to do with my life
