Though the desert days may take my life They won't take my soul, they won't take my pride Cuz when the strawman comes, got my eyes so wide Cuz I've been to the mountain. I've seen the light If the desert night, should call my name In my deepest dreams, in my desert haze If death shall come - it sets my soul free To the great unknown, to my desert peace If the desert love, should take my heart With her desert perfume and her eyes like stars If her loves grows cold, howl at the moon Dig a desert hole, for my desert gloom
