Marty Robbins - Man Walks Among Us lyrics

rate me

Warm are the winds on the desert<br />

A whirlwind is dancing around<br />

I stop to survey all the beauty that's here<br />

When a shadow moves out 'cross the ground<br />

<br />

It's an eagle that circles above me<br />

And he screams to his friends on the hill<br />

"Stay close together, move not a feather<br />

Man walks among us, be still, be still<br />

Man walks among us, be still"<br />

<br />

Everything hides, but I see them<br />

I've spotted an old mother quail<br />

I look close and see, looking right back at me<br />

The eyes of a young cottontail<br />

I see a coyote sneaking<br />

As he crawls through the brush on the hill<br />

And the eagle screams down, "Stay close to the ground<br />

Man walks among us, be still, be still<br />

Man walks among us, be still."<br />

<br />

Twenty feet high in the side of a cactus<br />

I see a hole where the butcher bird stays<br />

If mortals could choose, and if heaven should ask us<br />

Here's where I'd want to spend all of my days<br />

<br />

Soon will be gone all the desert<br />

Cities will cover each hill<br />

Today will just be a fond memory<br />

Man walks among us, be still, be still<br />

Man walks among us, be still.
