[Intro]
I was born in the badlands, honey
Strange place for a boy to drown
Spent my days on a mountain, baby
Twelve miles north of Sofiatown
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
Left to borrow, gone tomorrow
Baby, 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
[Verse 2]
Polish in your whip, never drove it far
Circling the veld, spittin' in the jar
On your Daddy's farm
You say you're afraid, tell me not to frown
Play a song, you dance around
Yippee yo ki yay, we'd hit the ground
Still tumbling down
I was born in the badlands, honey
Strange place for a boy to drown
Spent my days on a mountain, baby
Twelve miles north of Sofiatown
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
Left to borrow, gone tomorrow
Baby, 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
[Verse 2]
Polish in your whip, never drove it far
Circling the veld, spittin' in the jar
On your Daddy's farm
You say you're afraid, tell me not to frown
Play a song, you dance around
Yippee yo ki yay, we'd hit the ground
Still tumbling down
