lyrics

Living out here under the baking sun
My skin is clay, my eyes are gone
I know
I’m easy prey

I walk alone on this desert rock
My mouth is dry
My blood is hot
I know
I’m easy prey

My food is the sand I’m drinking my tears
I’ve been living this way out here for years
I know
I’m easy prey

I’ve been hunted down by a rattlesnake
The thought of his venom keeps me awake
I know
I’m easy prey

I hear that rattler coming near
I’d know that sidewinder anywhere
I hear that rattler coming near
I’d know that sidewinder…..
Anywhere

Well he can hunt me down while I’m here
But there’s coming a day when I’ll feel no fear
Yeah I’ll make it out of this desert alive
Til then I’ll take it one day at a time

As I scramble over this mountaintop
The rattler thinks he's got me caught
But I know
I’ve got a trick up my sleeve

I throw my weight against this broken rock
It tumbles down til the trail is block
I know
It’s time to make my leave

I’m running hard on calloused feet
Skin so hard I don’t feel the heat
Yeah I know
My chance is here

Well this burning land might be where I roam
But I sure as hell never called it home
I know
I’ll get out of here

Well he can hunt me down while I’m here
But there’s coming a day when I’ll feel no fear
Yeah I’ll make it out of this desert alive
Til then I’ll take it one day at a time
