Following desire in your eyes You're mine, you're mine, all mine Following the signs in your mind You're mine, you're mine, all mine
Bring me the head of the preacher man From the sickening daze O, the rotting sun washes down The moonshine boys, the vultures drool They pluck the gold dust from his eyes And pick his bones until they're clean The book of sorrows, the American dreams The book of sorrows, the American dreams The American dreams...
Following desire in your eyes You're mine, you're mine all mine Following the signs in your mind You're mine, you're mine, all mine Bring me the head of the preacher man On the blazing trail
Heaven holds lone star promise El Dorado The insane theater, once more we rise To drain the last of liquid sleep The gift of chance Eating the worm as the vapor drops and dances And everything stops and dances And everything stops and dances We tumble down these lonely days
