Across the mesa, the daylight shines in your eyes and it makes you blind And in your head the sirens wail, they just let you out of jail You're just dusty now, there's flies on you Your guns are rusty and your soul is too The Texas is wearing off of your old leather boots You're just dusty now, there's flies on you
There's tobacco inside your cuffs And you drink too much but it's never enough People stare at you as you stand and cough Might be the weather, might be the dust You're just dusty now... Rain rain rain in a western sky Teardrops in your heart, gravel in your eyes
