Description I love the desert more than the city
Yucca and pinyon mean more to me than all the steel and glass
Show me the cacti
Let me smell the maize
It's where my grandparents retired
In that magic oasis
But my true love is the sand and wind-weathered stone
I'll trade the Flamingo
MGM
Ceaser
Circus Circus
Treasure Island, and everything else
If only you'll let me breathe the dry, hot air as I get my feet soaked in the crystal water
If you smell colitas, you've travelled too far west
But
If you see rattlers with diamonds
Coyotes
Dust devils
The Grand Canyon
Should you stumble upon the forgotten pueblos and notice people speak more and more of that sexy Spanish
Then you are in my paradise
Where the rain blesses things sparingly
Because even though it's old people
Are long gone
Their purity still remains
In every grain of dirt and sand
They're singing in the stars
