Black gold in a white plight
          C            E7      A            D
Won't you fill up the tank, let's go for a ride
G        D           G        D
I don't care about no wheelchair
             C    E7     A           D
I've got so much left to do with my life

Moving backwards through time Never learn, never mind (pattern 2)
That side's yours, this side's mine Brother you ain't my kind (pattern 2)

You're a black soldier, white fight
Won't you fill up the tank let's go for a ride
Sure'd like to feel some pride
But this place just makes me feel sad inside
C        E                               A
Mother, do you know where your kids are tonight?

Keeps the kids of the streets Gives them something to do, something to eat
(pattern 2)
This spot was a playground This flat land used to be a town (pattern 2)
(pattern 2)

Black gold in a white plight
Won't you fill up the tank, let's go for a ride
Sure'd 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

C E A

Ending: (pattern 1)
