City lights
Ain't treatin' me right
On this side of the wall
I'm thinkin' it's time
To turn on a dime
For the Sierra Madre call
I caught wind
From a friend of a friend
Of mighty wealth untold
If the stories are true
Nothin' left to do
But head down to Mexico
[Chorus]
Desert wind
Blowin' me away again
Now you're my only friend
I've got left to call
[Verse 2]
Bought a two-bit mule
From a horse-theivin' fool
To cross the Rio Grande alone
I had to steer clear
But I had not a fear
Where the federale roamed
Once I was through
I knew what to do
Had to send that old mule home
I'm now on the trail
That lead most to hell
After Pancho Villa's gold
[Chorus]
Desert wind
Blowin' me away again
Now you're my only friend
I've got left to call
[Chorus]
Desert wind
Blowin' me away again
Now you're my only friend
I've got left to call
[Verse 3]
Followed the words
That I'd been told
Amongst the hillside shadows cold
When I talked to him
I caught a chill
For the cavern it did hold
The answers to questions that I never had
With riches I could hold
But truth of a man ain't built with hands or Pancho Villa’s gold
[Chorus]
It's that desert wind
Blowin' me home again
Now you're the only friend
That I'll ever call
[Chorus]
It's that desert wind
Blowin' me home again
Now you're the only friend
I'll ever call
[Verse 1] City lights Ain't treatin' me right On this side of the wall I'm thinkin' it's time To turn on a dime For the Sierra Madre call I caught wind From a friend of a friend Of mighty wealth untold If the stories are true Nothin' left to do But head down to Mexico [Chorus] Desert wind Blowin' me away again Now you're my only friend I've got left to call [Verse 2] Bought a two-bit mule From a horse-theivin' fool To cross the Rio Grande alone I had to steer clear But I had not a fear Where the federale roamed Once I was through I knew what to do Had to send that old mule home I'm now on the trail That lead most to hell After Pancho Villa's gold [Chorus] Desert wind Blowin' me away again Now you're my only friend I've got left to call [Chorus] Desert wind Blowin' me away again Now you're my only friend I've got left to call [Verse 3] Followed the words That I'd been told Amongst the hillside shadows cold When I talked to him I caught a chill For the cavern it did hold The answers to questions that I never had With riches I could hold But truth of a man ain't built with hands or Pancho Villa’s gold [Chorus] It's that desert wind Blowin' me home again Now you're the only friend That I'll ever call [Chorus] It's that desert wind Blowin' me home again Now you're the only friend I'll ever call Explain Request ×
