lyrics

A shot was fired that did kill a man
A picture of his girl clutched in his hand
They gathered around him
saw their brother who died
Heard the dessert moans and the mountain's cries

They flew him home in a basket case
While his young wife cried unto his face
They put him under
Gathered by his sides
Heard the dessert moans and the mountain's cries

His young child age of six or five
Could never sleep ever since that time
Foreign her dreams
Daddy daddy she cries
Hears the dessert moans and the mountain's cries

The general sat back against the wall
Gazed at photographs lined along the hall
Took a stand
To go walk in the light
Heard the dessert moans and the mountain's cries

The fight goes on and many more do die
Nobody's wrong if no one is alive
And the Sides Shift Blind and Tired
To hear the dessert moans and the mountains cries
Hears the dessert moans and the mountains cries
Here's the dessert moans and the mountains cry
Hear the dessert moans and the mountains cry
