Down That Dusty 3'rd World Road

Down That Dusty 3'rd World RoadHeart and clock slows down...And the sand reverberates with a tremelous soundOn a diet of water and thick airI inhale the heat and exhale my shareBarometer's climbin' up their scalesHeat shimmers and the horisont sails...I wouldn't know 'bout the governments policyBut the waterhole-water looks like coffee!Time stopped'n'heart slowedDown that dusty 3'rd world roadDown that dusty 3'rd world roadDown that dusty 3'rd world roadDown-down-down that dusty roadDown-down-down that dusty roadDown that dusty 3'rd world roadA full 20 miles wide..Lies glowin' pebbles'n'nothing beside...And man starts to boilCan't help being born above a lake of oilThe distant battles don't shoot blanks- Soon it's goodbye'n'many tanksThe long shadow used to read like poetry- Now the waterhole-water looks like coffee!Time stopped'n'hearts slowedDown that dusty 3'rd world roadDown-down-down that dusty roadDown-down-down that dusty 3'rd world roadDown-down-down that dusty roadDown-down-down that dusty 3'rd world roadDown that dusty 3'rd world roadDown-down-down that dusty roadDown that dusty 3'rd world roadDown-down-down that dusty 3'rd world roadDown that dusty 3'rd world roadDown-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road- Walkin' thick-soled...Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world roadYeah!
