Kalahari Down - Orville Peck

Lyrics by：Orville Peck

Composed by：Orville Peck

I was born in the Badlands honey

Strange place for a boy to drown

Spent my days on a mountain baby

Twelve miles north of Sofiatown

You've been gone away I've been riding around

Running out the days writing out a song

On my daddy's guitar

Did you find your way skip another town

Said I couldn't stay but it's different now

Yippee-ki-yi-yay I'm always down

For hanging around

Left to borrow gone tomorrow

Maybe there ain't a trail to follow

Better off alone if you ask me

Travel lucky Kawasaki

Maybe next time I'll take you with me

And I still hear the sound

The wind come up Kalahari down

Kalahari down

Polishing your whip never drove it far

Circling the veld spitting in the jar

On your daddy's farm you'd say you're afraid

Tell me not to frown

Play a song you'd dance around

Yippee-yo-ki-yay we'd hit the ground

Still tumbling down

What do I know buncha sorrow

Promises of a desperado

Through the rusty sky I feel the breeze

Where do we go Mendocino

Maybe someday you'll get to see all

The places that Torino's never been

And I still hear the sound

Wind come up Kalahari down

Kalahari down

Left to roam on a reckless wander

Raising sand on the setting sun

Keep an eye on that dusty highway

Tell my mother I'm nearly done

And I still hear the sound

Wind come up Kalahari down

Kalahari down
