[Verse] Dusty roads sunburnt sky Oil rigs like monsters high Men in suits they got the greed From deep down they make it bleed [Verse 2] Smoke stacks rise fortune's game Broken dreams all look the same Rich men feast poor men toil Black gold kings and famished soil [Chorus] Boomtown lies money talks Folks just drift they never walk Grease-stained hands hearts of stone Fortunes made but souls alone [Verse 3] Neon lights in window panes Whispers lost in whiskey stains Promises like shadows fade In the heat where deals are made [Verse 4] Every night the boomtown roars Hidden scars that no one shows Twisted hope and shattered dreams Oil drenched in bitter screams [Chorus] Boomtown lies money talks Folks just drift they never walk Grease-stained hands hearts of stone Fortunes made but souls alone
