Country Star Aaron Tippin debuted his new single called 'Drill Here, Drill Now' on the Sean Hannity show today. Inspired by the American Solutin's movement, Aaron Tippin song 'Drill Here, Drill Now' is based off of the petition drive to get congress to approve of drilling for oil in America.
With over 1.5 million signatures on the 'Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less' petition, American's are making quite the effort to get more oil to American people. Aaron Tippin explains the reason he made the single was because he, like all Americans, are tired of paying $4 a gallon for gas at gas stations. Tippin feels this is the correct action for Americans to solve the oil/energy crisis in America.
Using his popularity in pop culture, Aaron Tippin is trying to push this petition. Whether this is correct for an entertainer to do depends on what you believe. Aaron Tippin has no problem creating a fuss in the white house with his new song. (c) tPC

"Drill Here Drill Now"
Hello…..Is anybody out there listenin’ in Washington D.C.
This is the suffering voice of America crying out for relief
Now I don’t know what a gallon of gas costs up on Capitol Hill
But we sure know what it costs down here in Realityville
And the damage already done has been a mighty heavy toll
And if we’re gonna fix it we gotta start right here at home
CHORUS:
Drill here, drill now
How ‘bout some oil from our own soil that belongs to us anyhow
No more debatin’ we’re tired of waitin’ everybody shout out loud
Drill here, drill now
Every time a foreign tanker pulls up to our shore
They got us over a barrel while they bleed us a little more
And think how much it costs just to bring it all that way
And how many American jobs that’d make if we were drillin’ in the USA
Oh and God forbid if our oily friends should decide to cut us off
We’d be standin’ around with our britches down now listen to me ya’ll
REPEAT CHORUS
Well the winds of change are blowin’
Yes and we recognize that need
But tractors, trucks, cars and planes can’t run on tomorrow’s dreams
So while we’re workin’ on the future we can’t ignore today
Cuz who knows how much time the alternative might take
Somethin’s gotta be done right now cuz friends it won’t be long
Before this great big country comes grinding to a halt
REPEAT CHORUS
