The .357 String Band
Dust Devil
[Verse 1]
Well we been out runnin' out on a short fuse
Been gettin' no rest, makin' the best of all these things we gotta do
You can bet your life, boy, we'll have a drink or two
Oh and just a touch of whatever else that you got with you

[Verse 2]
You won't see us comin', oh we'll sneak right up on you
You won't see us go, but so you know, we'll see you next time we're through
Just kickin' up a dust-cloud you can't see the sun through
But don't hold a grudge, it's all because it's all we know how to do

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I can dance and I can sing
I ain't nothing but dirt and wind
I can dance and I can sing
And I'll be kickin' up dirt...

[Chorus]
Like a dust devil
In a barren field
We don't leave a trail, boys
We got the wind as our wheels
Like a dust devil
That don't know how to steer
Let's raise some hell, boys, then disappear
[Verse 3]
Now, we're slow to rise under that burning sun
But we're always spinnin' blind by the time that we're done
So just be aware, boys, we don't stop for anyone
And don't pretend they're not on the wrong end of a loaded gun

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I can dance and I can sing
I ain't nothing but dirt and wind
I can dance and I can sing
And I'll be kickin' up dirt

[Chorus]
Like a dust devil
In a barren field
We don't leave a trail, boys
We got the wind as our wheels
Like a dust devil
That don't know how to steer
Let's raise some hell, boys, then disappear
