A burnin' hot sun the,cry for water, black wing 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,a cry for water, black wing circle the sky Stumblin' and fallin' somebody's callin', "you're lost on the desert to die" 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 runnin' in circles and lost on the desert to die A burnin' hot sun,a cry for water, black wing circle the sky Stumblin' and fallin' somebody's callin', "you're lost on the desert to die" (Lost on the desert to die), lost on the desert to die (Lost on the desert to die),lost on the desert to die
