[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 womens from their other men
[Verse 1]
I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
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
Oh, you know she wished she would
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
The doctor call me crazy, some says I am, some says I ain't
The doctor call me crazy, some says I am, some says I ain't
Preacher man call me sinner, but his little girl call me a saint
[Verse 3]
A couple of shots of whiskey, women 'round here start lookin' good
Hey, a couple of shots of whiskey, these Midtown girls start lookin' good
Couple more shots of whiskey, I'm goin' down to Minglewood
That right, I am
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
T for Texas, yes and it's T for Timbuktu
Tell you it's T for Texas, yes, and it's T for Timbuktu
Yes and it's T for New York City
Where the little girls know what to do
Just what to, just what to do
[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 womens from their other men
[Outro]
Hey now, do it, do it again
Hey now, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their other men
Thank you. We're gonna take a short break. We'll be back in a few minutes, so everybody hang loose
