A bu rnin' hot sun a c ryin' for water b lack wings circle the s ky
St umblin' and f allin' s omebody's c allin' you're l ost on the d esert to d ie
I h ad to give up and they t ook me to ja il but I hid all the m oney I g ot
Way o ut on the desert where n o one could get it and I left a m ark at the s pot
Then I got away and I r an for the desert the d evil had taken c ontrol
I needed w ater but h e said I'd m ake it near the m oney is a b ig waterh ole
A bu rnin' hot sun a c ryin' for water b lack wings circle the s ky
St umblin' and f allin' s omebody's c allin' you're l ost on the d esert to d ie
(Instrumental)
Ju st up ahead is where I left my m ark or it may be to the l eft or the r ight
I've been r unnin' all day and they'll c atch up tomorrow I 've got to f ind it to night
Then u p jumped the devil and r an away laughin' he d rank all the waterholes dr y
He m oved my m ark till I'm r unning in c ircles and l ost on the d esert to d ie
A bu rnin' hot sun a c ryin' for water b lack wings circle the s ky
St umblin' and f allin' s omebody's c allin' you're l ost on the d esert to d ie
Lo st on the d esert to d ie lost on the d esert to d ie
