High Desert Woman

Tequila-stained letter, I shoulda known better
From mile twenty seven down palm twenty nine
Her juniper eyes, her coyote smile
Like rust on a sunrise, old leather on pine

I fell in love with a high desert woman
She's all that I wanted, like nothing I've seen
She'll dance like an angel, swear like a trucker
She's nothing but trouble
She's perfect for me
I fell in love...

She drives an old wrecker, her car's up on blocks
She laughs when it rains, she chews when she talks
She moves 'cross the canyon like a lost melody
And I lose my cool when she's looking at me

I fell in love with a high desert woman
She's all that I wanted, like nothing I've seen
She'll dance like an angel, swear like a trucker
She's nothing but trouble
She's perfect for me
I fell in love...
