Lyrics:I live out yonder where the snakes and scorpions run
got myself a little goldmine to bank
on
one day my heart sank when I saw Madame in town
I knew her love would be the death of
mine

L'amour passait, l'amour obsolète.
Pourquoi perdre sa vie à chercher l'or
d'un coeur?
Je ne me noierai pas dans ce désert mystique.
Je ferme mes comptes et je
repars.

(Love is passe and love is obsolete
some spend their whole lives searching
for a heart of gold
I'm tired of treading water in this desert mystique
I'm cashing in my
chips before I ride)

Do me a favor while I'm hanging here
Take this gold and go and
hide
ne gigote pas chéri sur ta corde pendue
(Don't twist too hard darlin' on your
hangin' rope)
Don't worry I'll be free in no time.

She promised me she would be
there when I'd return
she didn't say she'd have a army there as well
she whispered,
"J'taime Baby," as she fired that gun at me.
mais je n'ai plus de temps
(It's getting late
and I'm running out of time)

I should've stayed way out yonder better off with the

scorpions and snakes
Every act which has no heart will be found out in the end
Yes
I'm a little late this time,
cause her love would be the death of mine,
mine, all mine
