I looked outside of my window

There was fear in the pit of my heart

There was desert as far as the eye could see

Blistering, dusty, and hard

I trusted you in desperation

I said heaven forbid this place

It's hotter than hell and I'm loosing my cool

It's just not in the human race



No, no

(Way down low)

Death Valley

(A thousand miles to go)

Ho-ooo

(Way down low)

Hey there Death Valley, yeah

(A thousand miles to go)



Ooo, what if the engine should break down

What if the tire should blow

What if my soul should slip off this bus

And land in the inferno

Tossing and tumbling onward

Watchin' in vain for change

A windmill, a billboard, a Joshua Tree

A rusted old home on the range



Yeah

(Way down low)

Hey, hey, Death Valley, yeah

(A thousand miles to go)

Death Valley

(Way down low)

Hey, oh, oh, oh

(A thousand miles to go)



Slippery sand in the back of my throat, silica in my eyes

Pretty soon this will all be another bad dream if we make it

To the other side

If we make it

If we make it



Death Valley, yeah

(A thousand miles to go)

Aye-yeah Death Valley

(Way down low)

Death Valley

(A thousand miles to go)

Hey



(A thousand miles to go)

The human race

No

Hmm, none of the human race

Uh-yeah

I got slippery sand in the back of my throat

Silica in my eyes

Just another bad bad dream

If we make it to the other side
