Lyrics and composition

"Oil Money" is a pop-heavy song using a metaphor to describe an attractive woman with a body like "oil money". Barham said the song came about after watching Taylor Sheridan's series Landman.[2] The first verse describes the meeting of the woman, with the pre-chorus saying she was "Coppertone from head to Tony Lama", a reference to Coppertone sunscreen and Tony Lama footwear.[3] In the chorus, Barham relates the woman's looks to "oil money", due to the way she moves, saying he's a "rich man with his hands on that body like oil money". Barham also references "club country", the genre he has dubbed his own music. The second verse says the woman doesn't need fancy things to look nice, such as Louis Vuitton or fancy jewelry or cars, saying she'd look "bougie" with a Bottomland hoodie on, relating her beauty to that of the Stagecoach or Coachella music festivals.[4]

Commercial performance

"Oil Money" went viral on social media, particularly TikTok.
