Marty Robbins - Man Walks Among Us Lyrics
Warm are the winds on the desertA whirlwind is dancing aroundI stop to survey all the beauty that's hereWhen a shadow moves out 'cross the groundIt's an eagle that circles above meAnd he screams to his friends on the hill"Stay close together, move not a featherMan walks among us, be still, be stillMan walks among us, be still"Everything hides, but I see themI've spotted an old mother quailI look close and see, looking right back at meThe eyes of a young cottontailI see a coyote sneakingAs he crawls through the brush on the hillAnd the eagle screams down, "Stay close to the groundMan walks among us, be still, be stillMan walks among us, be still."Twenty feet high in the side of a cactusI see a hole where the butcher bird staysIf mortals could choose, and if heaven should ask usHere's where I'd want to spend all of my daysSoon will be gone all the desertCities will cover each hillToday will just be a fond memoryMan walks among us, be still, be stillMan walks among us, be still
