lyrics

When death was certain, they walked away, left him to rot in a sandy grave.
The sun was burning, then began to fade.

Revived by raindrops, he walked back to town.
He burned his coffin, then he turned around, built a ranch in the desert but we don't know how.

Beans for breakfast, meat from a can.
Food from the ranch house, avoid if you can.
Rumors of poison surround the pan.

He never spoke of vengeance, never clenched his hand.
The rustlers' descendants, they worked his land.
Delicious eggs and coffee, they had no chance.

In Desierto de los Muertos, rain falls three times a year.
Twice for the Earth and Her creatures, once for the white-haired devil.

When death was certain, they walked away.
Time for breakfast, time to pay.
