1
Oh my, my, my-
2
In a dusty caravan
3
Was a girl with a golden tan
4
And she asked me if I was headed to the east
5
I politely stepped a side and said I did not need a ride
6
That I'd rather take my chances with the heat
7
Well, when she turned and walked away
8
I saw my big mistake
9
There were jewels on her body oh-so-rare
10
Had it been another day I just might have rode away
11
With that woman riding off to God-knows-where
12
So the years they came and went
13
And found me living in a tent
14
Far above a little marble stream
15
And it may have been the light that shone out through the night
16
That attracted the hand scratching on my screen
17
When I cautiously looked out through the night
18
There was no doubt
19
That the owner of that hand was that girl
20
So I bid her do come in
21
And I'll open up a tin
22
If you'll tell me 'bout your trip around the world
23
Well, she said,"If you think back
24
To the first time that we passed
25
I'm sure you'll picture me in all my jewles
26
It was shortly after then that I ran into another man
27
And I asked him the same question I asked you
28
But now he he didn't refuse
29
And he took off of both his shoes
30
And climbed abord mu east-bound caravan
31
In the twinkling of the night
32
He knocked me off the side
33
And left me there for dead upon the sand
34
And I thought I was done
35
Lying naked in the sun
36
When much to my surprise, who should pass?
37
But this old friend of yours
38
He said he knew you from the wars
39
And I told him that I thought you'd headed west
40
Well, he said he should have known
41
'Cause you like to be alone
42
And that's the time I knew you were my one
43
So I asked him for a ride
44
Just to get here by your side
45
And stay here above this stream
46
Out of the sun"
47
Well, we sat quite for a while
48
And I began to smile
49
Well it's strange but I don't care
50
And some nights when I'm at rest
51
I wonder if I'd said, "yes"
52
Would she have come to me from God knows where
53
Or would I have been the one to leave her lying in the sun
54
And then ended up with only precious stones
55
Or would the woman in my arms be giving me her charms
56
If the answer that I gave her wasn't "no"
