Song Information:

This song was written by michael2 on MacJams, Michael Marquesen, and he has given me permission to post this. He came up with the idea that there should be challenge to get MacJams artists to cover other MacJams artists' songs, and then got a bunch of his songs covered, since he writes really good songs. I like this song a lot due to the subject matter and the style suites me pretty well. I thought I stayed pretty faithful to his original, but truth be told, I haven't listened to it since I started working on this. I know I changed the key. It was in G but I thought I'd put it in E since Johnny Cash did a lot of songs in E and I was thinking it would be good to do a sort of Johnny Cash vocal to this, but then of course I realized I didn't have the pipes for that performance and I did it in my normal voice.
But there again, I've blabbed on far too long and should probably just let the music do the talkin'. Have a listen and I hope you like it.

Song Lyrics:

daisy chains and bullet shells
walks at sunrise and acrid smells
take the dog out
sweep the porch off
sneak a smoke in the morning

i need gasoline
i need something
i need gasoline
i need something

drive my car
to the liquor store
buy some water
I don't drink no more
all those boys in front
they got their shirts off
flashing signs to show
which crew they're with

i need gasoline
i need something
i need gasoline
i need something
to raise my sleepy head
raise my sleepy head

Delilahs open
I'll take a walk
get some sweets and coffee
and company
all these people are
all so different
they don't care about
the boys up there

i need gasoline
i need something
i need gasoline
i need something
to raise my sleepy head
raise my sleepy head
i need gasoline
i need gasoline
i need gasoline
