Down in the Desert

歌詞

Karl went south and walked out on his hometown He said it was nowhere, he'd find a new job and stay there Karl went south like he'd fade if he stayed there It scared him, he felt claustrophobic and needed some air Something affected him down in the desert Karl went south with a sigh of relief Said he'd be happy with anything different at all Karl went south but he went through the desert A Mexican influence followed him home in the fall Karl came back but he isn't the same He came very quietly, no one was very surprised Karl came back and he works and he smiles But if you look closely there's still something scared in his eyes
