[Verse 1]
Her golden hair is one with the desert sun
Blue bonnet eyes reflect the sky as one
They're searching for a home to unpack her bags
She robbed them vultures from town to town, ran the mule right in the ground so fast

[Chorus]
My desert woman
Desert woman on the run
Left the hell where she came from
Desert woman has no fear
But desert woman

[Verse 2]
Goodbye, my love, I hope I never see you again
Well, he crossed the line so many times, it made it hard for her to forgive him
Where would we be if Adam left Eve for Eden?
Would it comprise this paradise, and roll the dice with all the lives they're gambling?

[Chorus]
Desert woman
Desert woman on the run
Left the hell where she came from
Desert woman has no fear
Desert woman
[Verse 3]
Now she holds the hand of a brand new man down in Austin
He won best at show in the rodeo, he's ridden and rode from here up to Boston
He's got a desert woman

[Chorus]
Desert woman on the run
Left the hell where she came from
Desert woman has no fear
Desert woman
Desert woman

[Instrumental Outro]
