Lyrics taken from a poem by Aola Vandergriff, the grandmother of Sean, J and Munkey

lyrics

There's a murder in the mountains
And the mesa's devil haunted
I am chilling with the hot sun
And I'm fevered with the cold
And my straining brain is burdened
For my saddlebags are laden
Filled to overflowing
With a dead man's gold

There are shadows in the shallows
And the depths of Poison River
There are buzzards swooping slowly
After something in the sand
Could it be it's shade they're seeking
Or a drink from Poison River
Or a gold coin glittering
In a dead man's hand

There's no water in the desert
Many miles to Broken Arrow
And it's further still to Paris
And I haven't got a boat
Drink your mine you thirsty frenchman
There is blood in Poison River
And these gold coins rattle
In a man's dry throat
