ON THE FIRST PART
OF THE JOURNEY
I WAS LOOKIN' AT
ALL THE LIFE
THERE WERE PLANTS
AND BIRDS
AND ROCKS AND THINGS
THERE WAS SAND
AND HILLS AND RINGS
THE FIRST THING I MET
WAS A FLY WITH A BUZZ
AND THE SKY
WITH NO CLOUDS
THE HEAT WAS HOT
AND THE GROUND
WAS DRY
BUT THE AIR
WAS FULL OF SOUND
I'VE BEEN
THROUGH THE DESERT
ON A HORSE
WITH NO NAME
IT FELT GOOD
TO BE OUT OF THE RAIN
IN THE DESERT
YOU CAN'T REMEMBER
YOUR NAME
'CAUSE THERE AIN'T
NO ONE
FOR TO GIVE YOU NO PAIN
LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
AFTER TWO DAYS
IN THE DESERT SUN
MY SKIN BEGAN
TO TURN RED
AFTER THREE DAYS
IN THE DESERT FUN
I WAS LOOKIN'
AT A RIVER BEND
AND THE STORY
YOU TOLD
OF A RIVER THAT FLOWED
MADE ME SAD TO THINK
IT WAS DEAD
YOU SEE I'VE BEEN
THROUGH THE DESERT
ON A HORSE
WITH NO NAME
IT FELT GOOD
TO BE OUT OF THE RAIN
IN THE DESERT
YOU CAN'T REMEMBER
YOUR NAME
'CAUSE THERE AIN'T
NO ONE
FOR TO GIVE YOU NO PAIN
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
AFTER NINE DAYS
I LET THE HORSE
RUN FREE
'CAUSE THE DESERT
HAD TURNED TO SEA
THERE WERE PLANTS
AND BIRDS
AND ROCKS AND THINGS
THERE WAS SAND
AND HILLS AND RINGS
THE OCEAN IS A DESERT
WITH ITS LIFE
UNDERGROUND
AND A PERFECT
DISGUISE ABOVE
UNDER THE CITIES
LIES A HEART
MADE OF GROUND
BUT THE HUMANS
WILL GIVE NO LOVE
YOU SEE I'VE BEEN
THROUGH THE DESERT
ON A HORSE
WITH NO NAME
IT FELT GOOD
TO BE OUT OF THE RAIN
IN THE DESERT
YOU CAN'T REMEMBER
YOUR NAME
'CAUSE THERE AIN'T
NO ONE
FOR TO GIVE YOU NO PAIN
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
