The street light it flickers and quietly remembers Back to 45 to the Friday night sounds The coyotes are different, they moan in the distance And their cries cast spells on the town But the boys from the rigs, they had paychecks to show They made money, and spent it like hell They took their debt, the pain and regrets and they left them beneath that well Oil town, oil town you have black gold beneath your ground Oil town, oil town, she's been away but soon she'll be found Well Mary, she's restless She'd heard of east Texas of the pines and the roses out there The wind in her sail, she cursed Midland to Hell And she ran from all of her kids But the time past her by like the dreams in her mind She got a letter from her mother one day It said the boys from k-hill, they just broke the shale To bring Heaven to Midland to stay Oil town, oil town you have black gold benath your ground Oil town, oil town she's been away but soon she'll be found Oil town, oil town you have black gold beneath your ground Oil town, oil town she's been away but soon she'll be found Oil town, oil town you have black gold beneath your ground Oil town, oil town she's been away but soon she'll be soon she'll be found

They got the Coliseum rockin' and they're making quite a din Singin' "here we go Oilers, here we go" again There ain't no louder building than the house of ninety-nine Got the echoes of the dynasty a burnin' in their minds You better cheer 'em on, they're the roughest necks around. 'Cause it's hockey night in Edmonton, the Oil's back in town, yeah! Skatin' quick and passin' pretty, fastest ice around the league The goalie stacks 'em up and makes a save you can't believe Elbows in the corners and she's getting kinda rough But I know we've got some boys that ain't afraid to drop the gloves You better cheer 'em on, they're the roughest necks around 'Cause it's hockey night in Edmonton, the Oil's back in town, yeah! All they got is broken noses, missin' teeth and blackened eyes Beards and blood and guts and stitches keepin' playoff hopes alive And the spirit of the boys from the Eighties in their eyes Come on and say it with me, say it "Five cups, five!" You better cheer 'em on, 'cause they're better than the rest They got the blue and orange colours of the Oilers on their chests, yeah! Well, I got me a couple tickets, take my baby to the game 'Cause the road trip's over, winnin' every game away Don't really need my radio, but bring it anyway Catch the skipper, Roddy Phillips, call the play-by-play You better cheer 'em on, they're the roughest necks around 'Cause it's hockey night in Edmonton, the Oil's back in town.
