Listen to the winter wind Hear the cold on nature's breath Get inside before the moon Or you will surely catch your death There's nothing for protection When winter wind comes through It's nature against your will to live You'll lose, that much is true The desert is a harsh place With heat that matches hell But the cold you feel in winter Will do you in, so fast as well It's a land of extreme harshness A place where you can surely die It's a place so full of beauty It's enough to make you cry In summer you are melting In winter frozen hard You may ask why I stay here The answer's easy pard' I live here for adventure I'm a cowboy through and through I share my life with Mother Nature I guess, it's just the thing I do I'm gonna die here in the desert But, not because of winter wind I'll die here for one reason So I can come back again The desert, she recycles Takes what's here back home I'll die out here in the desert But, until that time....I'll roam

I'll die in the desert
Listen to the winter wind Hear the cold on nature's breath Get inside before the moon Or you will surely catch your death There's nothing for protection When winter wind comes through It's nature against your will to live You'll lose, that much is true The desert is a harsh place With heat that matches hell But the cold you feel in winter Will do you in, so fast as well It's a land of extreme harshness A place where you can surely die It's a place so full of beauty It's enough to make you cry In summer you are melting In winter frozen hard You may ask why I stay here The answer's easy pard' I live here for adventure I'm a cowboy through and through I share my life with Mother Nature I guess, it's just the thing I do I'm gonna die here in the desert But, not because of winter wind I'll die here for one reason So I can come back again The desert, she recycles Takes what's here back home I'll die out here in the desert But, until that time....I'll roam
