waking up this Tuesday morning ready to make my seventh oilfield country song so I face time my beautiful wife she said she had some words for turbo Todd so I handed him the phone not sure what she said but I’m guessing it wasn’t nice his reply wasn’t exactly nice either now I made my way to the Gally to eat some sausage eggs and biscuits and wash them down with some good ole apple juice seen my Philippine buddy hollering at me from behind the wall saying good morning burns he really likes my oilfield country songs now he’s got me feeling kinda famous country star living that life a lot of us can only ever dream of then I snap back to reality and I’m still in the safety meeting not sure what they were talking about they asking me if I have anything to add all I could do is shake my head and say no walking out tha door all I could hear is Todd talking about is how much we made him look like an ass now my morale is down can’t even clown around all I did was answered a question didn’t wanna lie all I did was tell the damn truth now for some reason I’m the bad guy guess I’ll have to start going by the book and keeping it strictly business I hate it’s got to this point we were really clicking as a unit guess things change all I know is I work hard I try to go above and beyond my job duties and this is what I get for telling the truth anyways now I’m trying to find Gerald it’s like trying to find Waldo but he’s been acting like he’s been lost all damn day and got got poor ole Joe bob attached to his ass like a leach in heat I caught him trying to lick some acid we had to pump down the well 31 down the long string I didn’t want to hurt his feelings or make him feel bad so I just told him we had to pump every single drop in the well so it would kill all the oil and gas smell funny thing is he believed me now back to my song about this day can’t wait for dinner tonight and everyone in the gulf is having tacos tonight that’s why we all in this oil and gas industry call it taco Tuesday its been called that every since I started in the oilfield twenty six years ago you prolly wondering who came up with that I’ve wondered the same damn thing I’m not even gonna act like I know I have no idea and I’ll just leave it at that so now I’m let y’all in on a secret on how I eat on taco Tuesday first I grab a big ass bowl then I tear my soft shell into little bitty pieces then a big scoop of ground beef then a pile of them refried beans then half the bowl with of shredded up cheese and a lot of green salad sprinkle some tomatoes an a scoop of sour cream stir the shit up into a taco salad now I’m living the dream jumping into the shower getting in bed my heart starts beating faster cause I’m about to face time my wife to end this long day and the end of this Robert burns oilfield country song
