[Chorus]
I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
See, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Said I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Well, now, the sheriff couldn't catch me
But his little girl sure wished she would
You know she wished she would

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Well now, the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am and sometimes I ain't
Say now the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am, sometimes I ain't
You see, the preacher man call me a sinner, but his little girl call me a saint

[Chorus]
I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
You see, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
You see, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men

[Outro]
Hey now, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men
