New Minglewood Blues Live at Raceway Park in Englishtown New Jersey September 3 1977 by The Grateful Dead Lyrics

[Chorus]
I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
You see, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Said I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Well, now, the sheriff couldn't catch me
But his little girl sure wished she would
You know she wished she would

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Well now, the doctor call me crazy, maybe I am, sometimes I ain't
Say now the doctor call me crazy, somеtimes I am, sometimes I ain't
You see, thе preacher man call me a sinner, but his little girl call me a saint

[Chorus]
Well, I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
You see, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
Said I was born in a desert, raised in a lion's den
You see, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men

[Outro]
You see, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men
