New Mexico

New Mexico

I feel like my head’s going to explode

I see the rattler by the side of the road

I get down on my knees and say “Take me, Lord,”

That woman was here, but now she’s gone

I had a dream about you and me

I had a dream about buying up all this sand

Turn this place into a desertland

Took a little trip to New Mexico

Man said you might have been there, but he just don’t know

I had a dream about you and me

and New Mexico

I get down on my knees for one last prayer

Let me die beneath this desert air
