New Minglewood Blues (Live at Onondaga County War Memorial, Syracuse, NY, September 28, 1976) The Grateful Dead

[Chorus]
I was born in a desert, I was raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, I was raised in a lion's den
You see, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men

[Verse 1]
See, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Said I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Well, the sheriff couldn't catch me
But his little girl sure wished she would

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
Well now, the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am and sometimes I ain't
Said now the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am, sometimes I ain't
See, the preacher man call me a sinner, but his little girl call me a saint

[Chorus]
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
See, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men

[Instrumental break]
