New Minglewood Blues (Live at Cornell University, May 8, 1977)

[Chorus]
I was born in a desert, I was raised in a lion's den
I was born in a desert, I was raised in a lion’s den
Well, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from other men

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
I’m a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Well, the sheriff couldn't catch me
But his little girl sure wished she would
Know she wish she would

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
Well now, the doctor call me crazy, some says I am, some says I ain't
Said the doctor call me crazy, some says I am, some says I ain't
See, the preacher man call me a sinner, but his little girl call me a saint

[Chorus]
See, I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
See, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from other men

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
See, I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion’s den
See, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from other men
Well, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from other men
