Warm are the winds on the desert
A whirlwind is dancing around 
I stop to survey all the beauty that's here 
When a shadow moves out 'cross the ground 

It's an eagle that circles above me 
And he screams to his friends on the hill 
"Stay close together, move not a feather 
Man walks among us, be still, be still 
Man walks among us, be still" 

Everything hides, but I see them 
I've spotted an old mother quail 
I look close and see, looking right back at me 
The eyes of a young cottontail 
I see a coyote sneaking 
As he crawls through the brush on the hill 
And the eagle screams down, "Stay close to the ground 
Man walks among us, be still, be still 
Man walks among us, be still." 

Twenty feet high in the side of a cactus 
I see a hole where the butcher bird stays 
If mortals could choose, and if heaven should ask us 
Here's where I'd want to spend all of my days 

Soon will be gone all the desert 
Cities will cover each hill 
Today will just be a fond memory
Man walks among us, be still, be still 
Man walks among us, be still
