Desert Song Lyrics

I was born the devil’s son
Yes my dad, he gave my name

Now my mama keeps saying

[Chorus]
Run to the desert

You will be all that you need to be
Run to the desert
You will see all that you need to see

I woke up to the shadow of a man standing over me
Here in the land of frozen hands
I came out here to kill you father like a Sergio Leone picture
Gee I hope you understand
And as the red soaked the sand – shhh

[Chorus]
Run to the desert
You will see all that you need to see
Run to the desert
You will be all that you need to be

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
