The Kingston Trio Miscellaneous Desert Pete Desert Pete Artist: The Kingston Trio (peak Billboard position # 33 in 1963) Words and Music by Billy Edd Wheeler I was travellin?West a buckskin on my way to a cattle run Cross a little cactus desert under a hot blisterin?sun I was thirsty down to my toenails, stopped to rest me on a stump But I tell ya I just couldnt believe it when I saw that water pump I took it to be a mirage at first, itll fool a thirsty man Then I saw a note stuck in a bakin?powder can This pump is old? the note began, but she works so giver a tryndly, Desert Petein?up outta that hole in the ground I took off my shoes and I drunk my fill of that cool refreshing treat I thank the Lord and thank the pump and I thank old Desert Pete Youve got to prime the pump, you must have faith and believe? |
