Lyrics

Inside the brush, the rabbits are hushed
The wild tumbleweeds are standing still
The highway holds her breath for one night
The cactus quiets beneath the shade

Awaiting the desert jade
That desert jade
The desert jade

Phone lines listening all along the valley floor
The farmer stores himself away one meal
The sullen sun whose light was banned
He is preparing himself for the parade

Awaiting the desert jade
That desert jade
The desert jade
