I packed my bags up yesterday
No reason left for me to stay
Nothing left dreary days
This time I'm going far to stay
Been gone for years in my mind
And I stayed so long to hang around
But my hearts been drifting far away
May my last words to you feel kind
Cause I'm leaving today
That great white desert is heavy on my mind
There all my gold will be found
Leave this old life far behind
Cause this town is just ain't my kind
I'm leaving home today
Cause my mind is dreaming far away
And I don't have any words left to say
I;m going to the hot desert today
May you think of me as kind
All my riches I will be soon to find
And when that desert moon is high in the sky
We both can sit and ponder why
That hot sand is where I'm bound
Since my mind has dreamt so far away
Maybe one day I will come back to stay
