wasting through dry desert days
aching for somethin green
coyote lurking, showin his ribs,
fear and hunger makin him mean,
and the sand in his eyes
sun on his neck
dust in the air
haven't heard the rain all year
the desert is makin me lean, makin me lean
got me missin things i aint even seen
waves on the shore, wet sand in my toes
green trees and forest, lord only knows
how this desert is makin me lean
yucca's got roots go a mile deep
'cause it knows how sand keeps shifting
and time can break down any stone
does me no good, i keep on drifting
with this sand in my eyes
sun on my neck
dust in the air
haven't heard the rain all year
and the desert is makin me lean, makin me lean
got me missin things i aint even seen
waves on the shore, wet sand in my toes
green trees and forest, lord only knows
how this desert is makin me lean
