I married Isis on the fifth day of May

But I could not hold on to her very long

So I cut off my hair and I rode straight away

For the wild unknown

country where I could not go wrong

I came to a high place of darkness and light

The dividing line ran through the center of town

I hitched up my pony to a post on the right

Went in to a laundry to wash my clothes down

A man in the corner approached me for a match

I knew right away he was not ordinary

He said Are you lookin for somethin easy to catch

I said I got no money He said That ain't necessary

We set out that night for the cold in the North

I gave him my blanket he gave me his word

I said Where are we goin

He said we'd be back by the fourth

I said That's the best news that I've ever heard

I was thinkin about turquoise I was thinkin about gold

I was thinkin about diamonds

and the world's biggest necklace

As we rode through the canyons

through the devilish cold

I was thinkin about Isis

how she thought I was so reckless

How she told me that one day

we would meet up again

And things would be different the next time we wed

If I only could hang on and just be her friend

I still can't remember all the best things she said

We came to the pyramids all embedded in ice

He said There's a body I'm tryin to find

If I carry it out it'll bring a good price

Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind

The wind it was howlin

and the snow was outrageous

We chopped through the night

and we chopped through the dawn

When he died I was hopin that it wasn't contagious

But I made up my mind that I had to go on

I picked up his body and I dragged him inside

Threw him down in the hole and I put back the cover

I said a quick prayer and I felt satisfied

Then I rode back to find Isis just to tell her I love her

She was there in the meadow

where the creek used to rise

Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed

I came in from the East with the sun in my eyes

I cursed her one time then I rode on ahead

She said Where ya been I said No place special

She said You look different I said Well I guess

She said You been gone I said That's only natural

She said You gonna stay I said If you want me to yes

Isis oh Isis you mystical child

What drives me to you is what drives me insane

I still can remember the way that you smiled

On the fifth day of May in the drizzlin rain
