The Desert Babbler |
| It’s New Year’s Eve |
| California’s gonna kill you soon |
| The Barstow boys |
| Buckeyes in the shadow of the moon |
| Black houses in the hills and road side hearts |
| Dying for a place to fall apart |
| Who knew that you could learn to live without? |
| Mother Mary’s lyin' in your mouth now |
| Back home the kitchen’s warm with Christmas wine |
| And every girl has got an axe to grind |
| You live to look for heaven, but you’re far |
| From the hard light tonight |
| (ooh, baba dap ba ba ba ba bada) |
| (ooh, baba dap ba ba ba ba bada) |
| So quietly we’ve lost another year |
| The desert put a babbler in your ear |
| Mean fireweed and I miss you again |
| Barstow boys are spit into the wind, now |
| Back home the hammer always has to fall |
| Crosses barely hanging on the wall |
| Someday I know you’ll never leave me |
| But we’re far from the hard light tonight |
| (aah, baba dap ba ba ba ba bada) Ohh |
| (aah, baba dap ba ba ba ba bada) Ohh |
| (aah, baba dap ba ba ba ba bada) Ohh |
| (aah, baba dap ba ba ba ba bada) |
