High Desert Road

Lyrics

[Intro] Who's that old steer in my truck mirror? One with those white whiskers on his chin Where's the time go? Hell if I know Another cowboy's come and gone again [Chorus] I've seen skies climb forever I've seen canyons carved in stone Who am I, well I'm no better Than a raindrop on a dry desert road [Verse] In the springtime, when the sun shines You don't think a lot about the winter snow Then you wake up one cold mornin' Feelin' every season in your bones [Chorus] On a throne on saddle leather Ridin' outta hеre alone Thought my reign would last forеver But I'm a raindrop on a dry desert road [Bridge] And all I'll leave behind me, if I get lucky Is a touch of color in a cactus rose [Outro] Come springtime for a short time I'll be a tear that made the pretty flowers grow Not just a raindrop on a dry desert road
