He paid ready cash for the army of Venezue.....la,
For the Police and Cabinet too;
I saw him do what he'd come to do,
With all the tricks I knew he knew,
To get all the oil out of Venezue.....la,
To get Standard Oil the oil of Venezue.....la.
And when the tankers were sailing out so sea,
Were sailing out to sea,
And he was taking leave of me,
I said, "Watch out, there'll always be
Venezuelans in Venezue.....la,
Who thinks that the oil belongs to Venezue.....la."
They dumped the chump in a sump in Venezue.....la,
That free-enterprising Yank,
He sputtered and spattered and splashed as he sank,
And their laugh will outlast the Chase National Bank;
He's still stuck down there in Venezue.....la,
Unless he's drunk all the oil in Venezue.....la.
