Lost On The Desert lyrics

A burnin` hot sun a cryin` for water black wings circle the sky

Stumblin` and fallin` somebody`s callin` you`re lost on the desert to die

I had to give up and they took me to jail but I hid all the money I got

Way out on the desert where no one could get it and I left a mark at the spot

Then I got away and I ran for the desert the devil had taken control

I needed water but he said I`d make it near the money is a big waterhole

A burnin` hot sun...

[ ac.guitar ]

Just up ahead is where I left my mark or it may be to the left or the right

I`ve been runnin` all day and they`ll catch up tomorrow I`ve got to find it tonight

Then up jumped the devil and ran away laughin` he drank all the waterholes dry

He moved my mark till I`m running in circles and lost on the desert to die

A burnin` hot sun...

(Lost on the desert to die) lost on the desert to die (lost on the desert to die)
