I've known love like I may never know again She had long dark hair, coffee eyes and light brown skin Now I'm gone but I couldn't tell you why I left her all alone, the tears in her eyes I've gotta keep the hammer down There's many a lonely road I've yet to see Somewhere down a dusty trail On the wandering winds I will sail I'll keep moving 'till the moving buries me I'll keep moving 'till the moving buries me
Smell of rain rollin' in on the wind But no amount of falling water could wash away my sins Beyond the hills where the lechuguilla grows You'll find me where the wind always blows This barren land has nothing I desire But that won't keep the caliche off my tires Maybe time will settle down my pace But until then my friend, I wish you never in my place
