Diamond Rio - Two Pump Texaco Lyrics
(michael dulaney/neil thrasher)(track 1 - time 3:55)He was wipin motor oil off her dipstickShe was pullin on the hair that got caught in her lipstickAnd with the smell of her perfume he forgot the smell of gasolineAs he was toppin off her tank she said, how far to abilene?He sees em comeHe sees em goFrom the island of hisTwo pump texacoTheres a rusted out rambler up on the rackAnd a pile of bald goodyears out in the backHe meets families on vacation, bikers and businessmenHe calls em friend but hell probably never see em againNo he wontHe sees em comeHe sees em goFrom the island of hisTwo pump texacoHe keeps em movingOn down the roadCome back real soonTo his two pump texacoHes heard about those big city shop-n-go stationsWith twenty automated self-service machinesHe just feels sorry for them big city peopleThey must not know what service really meansHes got a sign that saysLast chance stop for at least two hundred milesMaps, gas, soda pop,Lucky strikes and moon piesYeah, hes a third generation filler-up, full service manHe thanks the lord for that star in the sky and the grease on his handsYeah he doesHe sees em comeHe sees em goFrom the island of hisTwo pump texacoIts like a place we used to knowCome back real soonTo his two pump texaco
