 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

Going back to the desert 
Arizona sun beat down 
Getting sick of my troubles 
Tired of this scuffling round 
Cos living in Dead City 
There ain't no peace around 

Saw a man on the corner 
Holding out his hand 
No home nor money 
This ain't how he'd planned 
Rotting here in this Dead City 
Doin' best he can 

Going back to the canyons 
Fish in a mountain stream 
Get a start with a new life 
Cut loose from all I'd been 
Get away from Dead City 
Where the police sirens scream
