Desert Skies

[Verse 1]
Well I'm ridin' along
Singin' the same ol' cowboy song
That's been sung a hundred times before
Ain't got nothin' but my name
And I'm the only man I know to blame
But I'm livin', I'm happy and I'm free

[Chorus]
Just listen to the wind blow
Let it blow, let it blow sand over my trail
I got my saddle on the ground
And that ol' moon, he can still be found
Hidin' in the desert sky

[Verse 2]
I like simple things in life like a prairie breeze
A good stout horse between my knees
Just bein' alone, just bein' me
And when I die let me die with a dream in my mind
A smile on my face and no trouble behind
And no cross on my grave to show my restin' place

[Chorus]
So I can listen to the wind blow
Let it blow, let it blow sand over my trail
I got my saddle on the ground
And that ol' moon, he can still be found
Hidin' in the desert sky

[Saxophone, Fiddle, and Guitar Solos]

[Outro]
Won't you bury me with my chaps on
And my six-gun strapped to my side
So I can watch the moon a-hidin' in the desert sky
Hidin' in the desert sky
Hidin' in the desert sky
Hidin' in the desert sky
