Les Claypool's Duo De Twang - Rumble Of The Diesel lyrics

rate me

I like the rumble of the diesel and the smell of oil

I percolate my coffee off the radiator boil

I been chasin’ tuna nearly 27 years

I got the eyeballs of an eagle but there’s ringing in my ears

I like the rumble of the diesel and the smell of oil

Grandad was a farmer but I couldn’t stand the soil

I like to keep it simple,it helps to keep me sane

I like floating in the ocean it nullflies the pain

Some say we can find a place

Between heaven and hell

Some work to make the bread rise

I like to plow the ocean swell

Errol’s s got a sweet Monterey

Rigged for salmon and crab

Never had a family

Unless you count that old yellow lab

I like the rumble of the diesel and the smell of oil

I percolate my coffee off the radiator boil

I been chasin’ tuna nearly 27 years

I got the eyeballs of an eagle but there’s ringing in my ears

I like the rumble of the diesel and the smell of oil

Grandad was a farmer but I couldn’t stand the soil

I like to keep it simple,it helps to keep me sane

I like floating in the ocean it nullflies the pain

Lookin’ back to ‘95

I had a fresh comings re-power

Draggin’ lines for Albacore

‘till the market went sour

We talked of strike for 40 days

Cause the price was drove down

And when we finally settled up

We got less than a dollar pound

I like the rumble of the diesel and the smell of oil

I percolate my coffee off the radiator boil

I been chasin’ tuna nearly 27 years

I got the eyeballs of an eagle but there’s ringing in my ears

I like the rumble of the diesel and the smell of oil

Grandad was a farmer but I couldn’t stand the soil

I like to keep it simple,it helps to keep me sane

I like floating in the ocean it nullflies the pain

I like the rumble of the diesel and the smell of oil

I percolate my coffee off the radiator boil

I been chasin’ tuna nearly 27 years

I got the eyeballs of an eagle but there’s ringing in my ears

I like the rumble of the diesel and the smell of oil

Grandad was a farmer but I couldn’t stand the soil

I like to keep it simple,it helps to keep me sane

I like floating in the ocean it nullflies the pain

It nullflies the pain
