I don't know where i come from but i know it's a place here on earth
|
Somewhere in a desert near a mountain was the place of my birth
|
|
If you could tell me i would cry if you could tell me
|
I would fly there if you could tell me my oh my my oh my
|
|
Somewhere out there in the blossoms of the cactus
|
I lost my mare walked up a ridge and at the top
|
I saw her running off i don't know where
|
|
If you could tell me i would cry if you could tell me
|
I would fly there if you could tell me my oh my my oh my
|
|
The naked sun she burns me down she turns my flesh to this dark brown
|
Won't someone please give me a place to go i assure you i don't ever ever know
|
|
If you could tell me i would cry if you could tell me
|
I would fly there if you could tell me my oh my my oh my
|
