My people came out of the forests and the mountains unto this un-promising land

Scratched out a living in this desert valley, hard living for any man

It weren't no Eden, as cold as Sweden, like Hades in the summer time

We built the cities, we dug the ditches, we picked the fruit from the vine

Trying to make a living, playing on my SG Gibson, yending bar and sometimes selling herb
