Trap door spider builds her nest along the edge of the river bed
But water doesn’t flow in its midst
Cactus can grow and that’s about it
A long-legged bird runs away along the side of a scraggy gully
The horned lizard looks on
Just warming his scales in the sun
There’s a lot of life for not a lot of livin
A lot the land takes without much givin
But its just enough to call it home
Along the Sand Canyon Road
Better take care where you reach your hand, there’s plenty of widows looking for a man
But cougar ain’t looking for a fight
She just wants to get home tonight
Don’t want to mess with a scorpion’s sting, he’s lord of his burrow but he ain’t no king
That title goes to the one
Who likes to eat rattlers for fun
