I marriBbed Isis onAb the fifth dEbay of May Bb
But I could not hold Abon to herEb very longBb
So I cut off my Abhair and I roEbde straight awBbay
For the wild unknown cAbountry where I cEbould not go wBbrong
BbI came to Aba high placeEb of darkness Bband light
The dividing line ranAb through Ebthe centreBb of town
So I hitched up my poAbny to a pEbost on theBb right
Went into a laundry tAbo wash myEb clothes dBbown
BbA man in tAbhe corner apEbproached me fBbor a match
I knew right away he Abwas not oEbrdinary Bb
He said "Are you lookAbin' for sEbomething eBbasy to catch?"
I said "I ain't got nAbo money",EbHe said "TBbhat ain't necessary".
BbWe set outAb that night Ebfor the cold Bbin the North.
I gave him my blanketAb, he gaveEb me his woBbrd
I said, "Where are weAb goin'?" EbHe said weBb'd be back by the fourth.
I said "That's the beAbst news IEb ever hearBbd."
BbI was thinAbking about tEburquoise I waBbs thinking about gold.
I was thinking about Abdiamonds Eband the woBbrlds biggest necklace.
As we rode through thAbe canyonsEb, through Bbthe devilish cold,
I was thinking about AbIsis, howEb she thougBbht I was so reckless.
BbHow she toAbld me that oEbne day we'd mBbeet up again,
And thing would be diAbfferent tEbhe next tiBbme we wed.
If I only hang on andAb just be Ebher friendBb.
I still can't remembeAbr all theEb best thinBbgs she said.
BbWe came toAb the pyramidEbs all embeddeBbd in ice.
He said "There's a boAbdy I'm trEbying to fiBbnd,
If I carry it out it'Abll fetch Eba good priBbce."
Twas then that I knewAb what he Ebhad on hisBb mind.
BbThe wind iAbt was howlinEbg and the snoBbw was outrageous.
We chopped through heAb night anEbd we choppBbed through he dawn.
When he died I was hoAbping thatEb it wasn'tBb contagious,
But I made up my mindAb that I hEbad to go oBbn.
BbI broke inAbto the tomb Ebbut the caskeBbt was empty
There were no jewels Abno nothinEbg, I felt BbI'd been had.
When I saw that my paAbrtner wasEb just beinBbg friendly,
When I took up his ofAbfer I musEbt-a been mBbad
BbI picked uAbp his body aEbnd I dragged Bbit inside,
Threw down into the hAbole and IEb put back Bbthe cover.
I said a quick prayerAb and I feEblt satisfiBbed
Then I rode back to IAbsis just Ebto tell heBbr I love her.
BbShe was thAbere in the mEbeadow where tBbhe creek used to rise.
Blinded by sleep and Abin need oEbf a bed. Bb
I came in from the EaAbst with tEbhe sun in Bbmy eyes.
I cursed one time theAbn rode onEb ahead. Bb
BbShe said "AbWhere ya beeEbn?" I said "NBbo place special."
She said "You look diAbfferent."Eb I said "WBbell I guess."
She said "You been goAbne." I saEbid "That'sBb only natural."
She said "You gonna sAbtay." I sEbaid "Well Bbif you want me to yes."
BbIsis oh IsAbis you're a Ebmystical chilBbd
What drives me to youAb is what Ebdrives me Bbinsane
I still can remember Abthe way tEbhat you smBbiled
On the fifth day of MAbay in theEb drizzlingBb rain
