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

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

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 'til the oil burns out

Pump Jack, pump Jack, pump a little more
'Cause Daddy's cut it thin at the general store
A gentleman's dime don't float that long
Hey, pump Jack, pump before my good name's gone

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

Pump Jack, pump Jack, pump a little more
'Cause Daddy's cut it thin at the general store
A gentleman's dime don't float that long
Hey, pump Jack, pump before my good name's gone
Yeah, pump Jack, pump before my good name's gone

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
