Lyrics

[Intro] One, two, one, two [Chorus] I was born in the desert, raised in a lion's den You see, I was born in the desert, raised in a lion's den And my number one occupation is stealing women from their men [Verse 1] Well, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good You see, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good Well now, the sheriff couldn't catch me But his little girl sure wished she would You know she wished she would [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Well now, the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am, sometimes I ain't Yes, and the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am, sometimes I ain't You see, the preacher man call me a sinner But his little girl call me a saint [Chorus] 'Cause I was born in the desert, raised in a lion's den You see, I was born in the desert, raised in a lion's den Well, my number one occupation is stealing women from their men And I'll do it again [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] You see, I was born in the desert, raised in a lion's den You see, I was born in the desert, raised in a lion's den Well, my number one occupation is stealing women from their men And I'll do it again [Outro] Well, my number one occupation is stealing women from their men
