Red Desert from Red Desert by Silverchild

Stranger comes by on the red desert sand
Saying that he knows and he owns this land
He don’t give a name and I don’t ask why
Heaven knows where he’s from

A Ghost seeing pill in the palm of my hand
Said it’s the dead man’s cure from the medicine man

Heatwaves a’blazin’ and the sun is red
Time goes by when the demons fed
I shoulda listened to my momma all the way back home
Don’t spend a penny on a bone

A Ghost seeing pill in the palm of my hand
Said it’s the dead man’s cure from the medicine man
A Ghost seeing pill in the palm of my hand
Said it’s the dead man’s cure from the medicine man

The sinner in me took me way out back
With a bad dirty deal on the desert track
And there’s big old horns resting on his head
The devil’s colour sure is red

In the end I got the apple but the core was bad
It must have been the taste that the maggot had
And a lesson lived is a sentence served
Now I’m doing time in hell

A Ghost seeing pill in the palm of my hand
Said it’s the dead man’s cure from the medicine man
A Ghost seeing pill in the palm of my hand
Said it’s the dead man’s cure from the medicine man

The sinner in me took me way out back
With a bad dirty deal on the desert track
And there’s big old horns resting on his head
The devil’s colour sure is red

Monkey gone did what monkey shouldn’t have
Now I’m paying for the soul I got
The more ground I tread the more I see
The soul sipping demon in me

A Ghost seeing pill in the palm of my hand
Said it’s the dead man’s cure from the medicine man
A Ghost seeing pill in the palm of my hand
Said it’s the dead man’s cure from the medicine man

The sinner in me took me way out back
With a bad dirty deal on the desert track
And there’s big old horns resting on his head
The devil’s colour sure is red

The sinner in me took me way out back
With a bad dirty deal on the desert track
And there’s big old horns resting on his head
The devil’s colour sure is red
