"My Desert Home" lyrics

Up in the morning
Rise with the sun
I can feel the wind blow
On my face as I run
To the top of the mountain
And back down home
Where I wait
In my desert home

My hands are still steady
My feet can still go
My back's been broken
My step has been slowed
I'm feeling to young
To be feeling so old
Tucked away in my desert home

Keep your hands on the table
Up where I can see em
Don't trust you no more
Since you lied to me
You told me to come back and I know that you won't
You promised to love me and I know
That you don't
Anymore

I got friends in the country with kids near grown
But I never did marry, have one of my own
Still got old Charlie, just not sure for how long
My good boy
And my desert home

That's all there is to it, I know the show must go on
There's life to be lived still, there's seed to be sown
And I'll pray that some day, I may walk in the sun
Far away from my desert home
Far away from my desert home
