I′ve been a foolish man longer than I can recall
See my name chiseled deep into those dark cave walls
So many memories that I cannot control
Keep the fuse too short and the order too tall
That gold deep in the rock sings me a lullaby
If you'd only dug deeper, we′d be together tonight
I'm rollin' one last smoke to sit by the firelight
I′m high and lonesome, and the desert′s too quiet
I have a dream sometimes of leadin' my mules into town
Their backs sloped and broken under the load I′ve found
Get me some rye, get me some women, get me the big shot now
Get me out of this graveyard livin', deep in the ground
That gold deep in the rock sings me a lullaby
If you′d only dug deeper, we'd be together tonight
I′m rollin' one last smoke to sit by the firelight
I'm high and lonesome, and the desert′s too quiet
I′m high and lonesome, and the desert's too quiet
