Lyrics

I was born in the badlands, honey

Strange place for a boy to drown

Spent my days on a mountain, baby

12 miles north of Sofiatown

You’ve been gone away – I’ve been riding around

Running out the days – writing out a song

On my daddy’s guitar

Did you find your way? Skip another town?

Said I couldn’t stay but it’s different now

Yippee ki yi yay – I’m always down

For hanging around

Left to borrow, gone tomorrow

Maybe there ain’t a trail to follow

Better off alone if you ask me

Travel lucky, Kawasaki

Maybe next time I’ll take you with me

And I still hear the sound

The wind come up – Kalahari down

Kalahari down

Polishing your whip – never drove it far

Circling the veld – spitting in the jar

On your daddy’s farm

You’d say you’re afraid, tell me not to frown

L’o play a song, you’d dance around

Yippee yo ki yay – we’d hit the ground

Still tumbling down

What do I know? A buncha sorrow

Promises of a desperado

Through the rusty sky I feel the breeze

Where do we go? Mendocino?

Maybe someday you’ll get to see all

The places that Torino’s never been

And I still hear the sound

Wind come up – Kalahari down

Kalahari down

Left to roam on a reckless wander

Raising sand on the setting sun

Keep an eye on that dusty highway

Tell my mother I’m nearly done

And I still hear the sound

Wind come up – Kalahari down

Kalahari down
