[Chorus] I was born in a desert Raised in a lion's den See, I was born in a desert Raised in a lion's den You see, my number one occupation Is stealing women from their men [Verse 1] Well, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good Said I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good See, the sheriff couldn't catch me But his little girl sure wished she would You know she wished she would [Instrumental break] [Verse 2] See, now, the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am, sometimes I ain't Say now, the doctor call me crazy, and sometimes I am, sometimes I ain't But I tell ya, the preacher man call me a sinner, but his little girl call me a saint [Chorus] 'Cause I was born in a desert Raised in a lion's den Said I was born in a desert Raised in a lion's den You see, my number one occupation Is stealing women from their men [Instrumental break] [Chorus] Said I was born in a desert Raised in a lion's den Said I was born in a desert Raised in a lion's den You see, my number one occupation Is stealing women from their men Said my number one occupation Is stealing women from their men
