5000 Acres

Dirty, ugly south
There’s no trouble from the law
but the highway’s runnin’ out
I haven’t gone too far

I like to see it burn.
Yes, it makes me feel right
to use up all the fuel
and make the nightime bright

I’m gonna make the nightime bright
I’m gonna make the night time bright

Dirty oil in this engine runs
As 5,000 acres burn
5,000 acres burn
5,000 acres burn in California

I’m in Mississippi now
It’s unusually cold
I’m laughin’ ’cause I’m wrong;
I’m not what I’ve become

I’m not what I’ve become
I’m not what I’ve become
no, I’m not what I’ve become

Dirty oil in this engine runs
As 5,000 acres burn
5,000 acres burn
5,000 acres burn in California
