Desert Wind Lyrics by Cody Jinks

Lifers

2018

[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
