The Lyrics
Im not sure what versions you guys are familiar of but im doing the 2 minute version off the apostrophe album just to let you know.
Went last week to Texaco
One gallon was three o o
I looked in my wallet and screamed oh no
Can't fill up don't have enough dough
How can I drive when my budgets this low
Gotta get a ride
Gotta get a ride (from my uncle from my uncle)
All cuz of gas at Texaco
Save your money don't waste all your dough
Til the price of gas goes from high to low
Til the price of gas goes low low
Til the price of gas goes low low
And to save your time rent limos
And that will (drop gas prices) back to 2.25
Don't waste gas money just invoke
If you get gas weekly you'll go broke
One gallon was three o o
I looked in my wallet and screamed oh no
Can't fill up don't have enough dough
How can I drive when my budgets this low
Gotta get a ride
Gotta get a ride (from my uncle from my uncle)
All cuz of gas at Texaco
Save your money don't waste all your dough
Til the price of gas goes from high to low
Til the price of gas goes low low
Til the price of gas goes low low
And to save your time rent limos
And that will (drop gas prices) back to 2.25
Don't waste gas money just invoke
If you get gas weekly you'll go broke
