40 days in the desert - jesse welles lyrics
[chorus]
40 days in the desert
40 nights in the sand
40 long days wandering in a haze
aimless
with no real plan
[verse 1]
i know some men ain’t got no hands
i know some men ain’t got no eyes
i know some come back with their bodies intact
but they all lose a bit of their minds
[chorus]
40 years in the desert
40 years in the dark
is that all you get for yer money
a monument in the park
[verse 2]
heroin and oil on holy soil
it’s a crusader’s dream
we’re gonna get out pretty soon they shout
but they don’t ever really leave
[instrumental]
[verse 3]
you tarry too long down in babylon
you’ll get caught between the streams
yer best years passed turning sand into glass
now yer sons crawl thru the streets
[bridge]
i know some flags up on the mantle
i know some mommas got no sons
i know a whirlwind when i see one coming
we’re gonna reap it as it comes
[chorus]
40 years in the desert
40 years in the sand
when i came down off of the mountain
i had nothing in my hands
[outro]
and u know better than to ever wonder
uncle eagle tells the truth
don’t u know that it’s so unbecoming
to go out looking for some proof
