(who was the man who put) the line in gasoline - jerry reed lyrics

[verse 1]
well i was waitin’ in line
for my turn to get gas
and i was number 87
and movin’ up real fast
then i happened to notice
about four cars back
there was a wild red eyed man
in a big blue cadillac
he said, i’ve been to d*mn near every station
in this town, and my mind is about to go
and my resistance is down
my brain is gettin’ fuzzy
and my patience is worn out
then he climbed up on his hood
and we all heard him about

[chorus]
who was the man who put the line in gasoline
president, or chairman oils or arrow king
was it just a cruel joke or is it more obscene
oh, who was the man who put the line in gasoline

[verse 2]
well meanwhile back in line
things were creeping real fine
an eighteen foot motor home
changed owners 3 times
a lady who got pregnant
back by the speed bump
had given birth to twins
by time she reached the pump
a boys waitin’ in a lincoln
their waitin’ in a jeep
and this old dude in an etsel kept fallin’ asleep
they came to get the man in the cadillac
and take him away
a’kickin’ and a’screamin’ and again we heard him say
[chorus]
who was the man who put the line in gasoline
president, or chairman oils or arrow king
was it just a cruel joke or is it more obscene
oh, who was the man who put the line in gasoline

[verse 3]
well it seemed like days later
when i topped of the tank
i sh*lled out $20 and
some fella mumbled said “thanks”
well i slipped in the driver seat
started to drive away when the right door flew open
and this guy crawled inside
on his face he had a mask
and in hand he had a gun
he said, “this is premeditated highway robbery son”
then he pulled a can and
a side hose from under his mask
he said you can keep your wallet
but hand over the gas

[chorus]
who was the man who put the line in gasoline
president, or chairman oils or arrow king
was it just a cruel joke or is it more obscene
who was the man who put the line in gasoline
[outro]
tell me who was the man who put the line in gas
to do this to us it just ain’t human
the gas is gone and now we’re fuming
who put the line in gasoline, son
