Propane Money
Hank Trill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴I keep that thing on me
Goddamnit, Bobby
They see me sellin' propane
And now they tryna copy
Pretend to be broke, but I got hella cash
If you use charcoal, I'ma kick your ass

Made this money from Propane, bitch

I feel like Pablo Escobar, but I don't sell cocaine, bitch
Shot that fella 'cause he didn't make his payments
Fuck with me, I keep a rocket launcher in my basement

Made this money from Propane, bitch
I feel like Pablo Escobar, but I don't sell cocaine, bitch
Shot that fella 'cause he didn't make his payments
Fuck with me, I keep a rocket launcher in my basement (oh man, goddamn)

I caught Bobby jackin' off (jackin' off), syrup ain't no cough
Big Hank break the law, Ladybird, that's my dog (that's my dog)
Peggy got that wet-wet, I flip you like a Tech Deck
Yeah, I run my set-set; I'm runnin' up them check-checks (oh man, goddamn)

If you usin' charcoal that's a red dot at yo' head (at yo' head)
Propane 'til I'm dead ('til I'm dead), bitch I'm off the meds (I'm off the meds)
We be smokin' loud (loud) and you smokin' on mid (mid)
Me and Dale gettin' lit, and I'm runnin' from the feds (from the feds)

Made this money from Propane, bitch
I feel like Pablo Escobar, but I don't sell cocaine, bitch
Shot that fella 'cause he didn't make his payments
Fuck with me, I keep a rocket launcher in my basement

Made this money from Propane, bitch
I feel like Pablo Escobar, but I don't sell cocaine, bitch

Shot that fella 'cause he didn't make his payments
Fuck with me, I keep a rocket launcher in my basement

I have made my fortune by selling propane, like Pablo Escobar did with cocaine. I am not afraid to take violent action against those who do not pay their debts. I am well-prepared for any potential threats to my business, as evidenced by my possession of a rocket launcher.

Bobby was caught masturbating and cough syrup is not a suitable replacement for propane. I am not afraid to break the law, and Ladybird is my loyal companion. Peggy is sexually desirable and I am highly skilled at making money.


If you usin' charcoal that's a red dot at yo' head (at yo' head) Propane 'til I'm dead ('til I'm dead), bitch I'm off the meds (I'm off the meds) We be smokin' loud (loud) and you smokin' on mid (mid) Me and Dale gettin' lit, and I'm runnin' from the feds (from the feds)
Using charcoal is asking for trouble, and I will defend my use of propane with force. I am committed to propane for life and I am a little bit crazy. We smoke high-grade marijuana, while you settle for a lower quality. Me and Dale are having a good time and I am also avoiding law enforcement.
