On the first part of the journey, I was looking at all the life There were plants and birds and rocks and things There was sand and hills and rings The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz And the sky with no clouds The heat was hot and the ground was dry, But the air was full of sounds I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can't remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la After two days in the desert sun, my skin began to turn red After three days in the desert fun, I was looking at a river bed And the story it told of a river that flowed Made me sad to think it was dead You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can't remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la After nine days, I let the horse run free 'cause the desert had turned to sea There were plants and birds and rocks and things There was sand and hills and rings The ocean is a desert with its life underground And a perfect disguise above Under the cities lies a heart made of ground But the humans will give no love You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can't remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la La la, la, la, la la la, la la la, la, la |

I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find But it doesn't mean you ain't been on my mind Will you meet me in the middle, will you meet me in the air? Will you love me just a little, just enough to show you care? Well I tried to fake it, I don't mind sayin', I just can't make it Well, I keep on thinkin' 'bout you, Sister Golden Hair surprise And I just can't live without you; can't you see it in my eyes?

Muskrat, muskrat candlelight
Doing the town and doing it right In the evening It's pretty pleasing Muskrat Susie, Muskrat Sam Do the jitterbug out in muskrat land And they shimmy And Sammy's so skinny And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed Singing and jinging the jango Floating like the heavens above Looks like muskrat love Nibbling on bacon, chewing on cheese Sammy says to Susie, "honey, would you please Be my missus?" And she says yes with her kisses And now he's tickling her fancy, rubbing her toes Muzzle to muzzle, now anything goes As they wriggle And Sue starts to giggle And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed Singing and jinging the jango Floating like the heavens above Looks like muskrat love |

We used to laugh
We used to cry We used to bow our heads then Wonder why But now youre gone I guess I'll carry on And make the best of what you've left to me Left to me, left to me I need you Like the flower needs the rain You know, I need you Guess I'll start it all again You know, I need you Like the winter needs the spring You know I need you I need you And every day I'd laugh the hours away Just knowing you were thinking of me Then it came That I was put to blame For every story told about me About me, about me I need you Like the flower needs the rain You know, I need you Guess I'll start it all again You know, I need you Like the winter needs the spring You know I need you I need you, I need you |

There's a little girl out lyin' on her own
She's got a broken heart She's not the kind to take you down for long She knows and plays it smart (Ah--) And if she's comin' she's shown no more She's heard no whistle blowin' from the door She feels like leavin' and she don't know why Without no bridges she's trapped, so I sigh Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side All your life You were on your own If you want you can ride my train And soon forget the reason that you're leaving You'll lose yourself and then sometime Maybe even save yourself some grievin' Oh, oh, oh, oh Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide ... |
