Horse With No Name Lyrics by Horace Andy

Mek It Bun (Deluxe Edition)

2002

[Intro]
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 1]
On the first part of the journey, I was looking at all of life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of a sound
[Chorus]
I've been through the desert with a horse with no name
It was good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
Because there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la
[Verse 2]
After two days in the desert sun, my skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun, I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told, and the river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead
[Chorus]
You see, I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
Because there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la
[Bridge]
Yeah, tell 'em now
Oh ya, oh ya, uh-huh
[Verse 3]
After nine days, I let the horse run free
Because the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
And the sand and the hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities is a heart made of clay
But the humans will give no love
[Chorus]
I've been through the desert with a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
Because there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la (And you see)
[Outro]
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
In the desert you can't remember your name
Because there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la (Oh Lord)
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la, la
