Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
The desert dust fills your eyes
The rattlesnake shake takes you by surprise
The coyotes sing in the calm of night
The cactus water goes down like fire
The City of Angels ain't too far from here
And when I need some sin, it's always near
The Caliente warms my bones
And the Valley of Death is a skeleton's home
The desert toad takes me for a ride
The Lizard King's always by my side
The hawk and eagle just wanna fly
But the horizon's hot, and the air is dry
ย
The venom stings from the scorpion
And the owl watches where I've been
My lips are cracked from the howlin' wind
I need to quench my thirst and heal my skin
The mountains like paintings, the Joshua Tree
Gram died in room eight and left it all to Keith
Just a couple of miles from the Salton Sea
But a little closer to heaven for someone like me
