[Verse 1]
The giver of life's tryin' to take it away
In the desert you always feel half-dead
Trapped in the Akhe-nettin' there's no forgettin'
Where it is we come from
[Chorus]
Just slaving away
Underneath the cruel old sun
Just slaving away
Underneath the cruel old sun
[Verse 2]
She's a tall drink of water upon the palanquin
She's outta my league still I can't help thinkin'
I got me a job, I'm gonna get 'er done
[Chorus]
You get crazy ideas
Underneath the cruel old sun
[Bridge]
Baby, out here it sure is hot
And I can't help but notice what you got
Now that slavedriver man, he never gonna understand
And the years get swallowed up by the sand
The giver of life's tryin' to take it away
In the desert you always feel half-dead
Trapped in the Akhe-nettin' there's no forgettin'
Where it is we come from
[Chorus]
Just slaving away
Underneath the cruel old sun
Just slaving away
Underneath the cruel old sun
[Verse 2]
She's a tall drink of water upon the palanquin
She's outta my league still I can't help thinkin'
I got me a job, I'm gonna get 'er done
[Chorus]
You get crazy ideas
Underneath the cruel old sun
[Bridge]
Baby, out here it sure is hot
And I can't help but notice what you got
Now that slavedriver man, he never gonna understand
And the years get swallowed up by the sand
