Hank And Joe And Me · letra

Verse 1

In the desert where we searched for gold The days are hot the nights are cold Hank and Joe and me walked on So bold and brave and free For days and days we fought the heat I got so thirsty and I got so weak And when I fell because I couldn't go I heard Hank say to Joe

Chorus

He's dying (Dying dying) For water Hear him crying (Crying crying) For water

Verse 2

Well lay him down in the dust and sand he said Joe you know he's a dying man Leave him there and let him die I can't stand to hear him cry for water I don't remember how long I lay But when I awoke it was the break of day Buzzards circled miles ahead I knew Hank and Joe were dead My eyes were dimmed but I could see A bed of gold nuggets under me Now I know that it won't be long Till they decorate my bones

Chorus
