[Verse 1]
I see you standing in the sun
Like an iron dinosaur
Got your tired head resting
On a West Texas floor
We were really something son
Back in our time
Yeah we broke a lot of hearts
And we made a lot of dimes
[Chorus]
Pump Jack pump Jack
Pump a little more
Cause Daddy's cut it thin
At the general store
Gentleman's dime don't float that long
Hey pump Jack pump before my good name's gone
[Verse 2]
You know I lost my baby to a wildcat dream
I was fueled by the crude and the gasoline
It's hard to settle down with a roustabout
That oil burns hot 'till the oil burns out
[Chorus]
Pump Jack pump Jack
Pump a little more
Cause Daddy's cut it thin
At the general store
Gentleman's dime don't float that long
Hey pump Jack pump before my good name's gone
[Verse 3]
Standing in the panhandle
Cussing this well
Wishing like the devil
Praying like hell
At the end of this string is a pot of black gold
Sitting in the bottom of another giant hole
[Chorus]
Pump Jack pump Jack
Pump a little more
Cause Daddy's cut it thin
At the general store
Gentleman's dime don't float that long
Hey pump Jack pump before my good name's gone
[Bridge]
Yeah pump Jack pump before my good name's gone
[Outro]
Pump Jack pump Jack
Pump a little more
Pump Jack pump Jack
Pump a little more
Yeah pump Jack pump Jack
Pump a little more
Pump Jack pump Jack
Pump a little more
