'Cause there ain't no one for to give you cocaine.
In the desert you can remember your name

'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain.
In the desert, you can remember your name
Because there ain't no one for to give you no paint.
In the desert, you can remember your name

On the first part of the journey, I was looking at all the lights.
On the first part of the journey, I was looking at all the life.
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the lice.
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life.
The first thing I met was a fly with the runs.
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz.
The first thing I met was a tropical buzz.
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz.
The first thing I met was the flowers above.
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz.
The ocean is a desert with its life underground and the perfectest skies above
The ocean is a desert with its life underground and a perfect disguise above
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And a perfect of skies above.
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And a perfect disguise above.
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no legs
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
You see I've been to the desert on a horse with no brain
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
You see I've been to the desert on a horse with no mane
I've been to the desert on a horse with no name
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no thing
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
All the devils that can't remember your name
In the desert, you can't remember your name
And the devils can't remember your name
In the desert, you can remember your name
I've been through the desert on a whore with no name
I been through the desert on a horse with no name
In the Datsun, you can't remember your name
In the desert, you can't remember your name
In the bathtub, you can’t remember your name
In the desert, you can remember your name
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to feel you no pain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain.
In the desert you can't remember your name
In the desert you can remember your name
Is in the desert you can't remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no fame.
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

My kids began to see red
My skin began to turn red
On the first part of the trolley
On the first part of the journey
Sad to think it was debt
Sad to think it was dead
The ocean is a desert with its life underground and a couple of guys above
The ocean is a desert with its life underground and a perfect disguise above
I've been through the desert on a horse with no legs..
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name...
O we went to the desert on our horses one day
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one there to give you no name
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
