Oil in Texas !

[bowtie]

LONGVIEW, Texas (AP) -- A Texas woman has struck oil -- or maybe it struck her.

Leila LeTourneau returned from work late Monday to find crude oil covering her home's floors and spilling from the toilets, bathtub and sinks.

Experts have told her the oil kind of "burped up."

Longview city crews and representatives from Basa Research, which owns some wells in the area, are trying to help find the source of the oil.

Local station KLTV reported one theory is that the house may have been built on an abandoned well that wasn't properly plugged.

"I always tease people about 'doesn't everybody in Texas have an oil derrick in the back yard?' Then when I came home I discovered I struck oil inside the house," LeTourneau said.

She and her son are now staying at a hotel.

Lemme tell you little story 'bout a chick named Leila
Poor Texas girl tryin to find a decent fellah
And then one day she was sittin on the throne
When up through the pipes came the oil like a foam.


Crude that is
Black gold
Sure ain't pee!

Well the first thing you know ol' Leila's a millionaire
The kinfolk said, "Girl move away from there"
They said, "Californy's the place y'oughta be"
So she loaded up the SUV and moved to Beverly.



Hills that is
Swimmin' pools
Mooooovie stars
