Then Came The Last Days Of May Lyrics - Singles - Blue …yster Cult

Parched land no desert sand, sun was just a dot 

And a little bit of water goes a long way, 'cause it's hot 

Three good buddies were laughing and smoking in the back 

Of a rented ford 

They couldn't know they weren't going far 

Each one with the money in his pocket 

Could go out and buy himself a brand new car 

But they all had the money they had 

Money they hoped would take them very far 

The sky was bright, a traffic light, now and then a truck 

And they hadn't seen a cop around all day (what luck...) 

They brought everything they needed 

bags and scales to weigh the stuff 

The driver said the border's just over the bluff 

It wasn't until the car suddenly stopped 

In the middle of a cold and barren place 

And the other guy turned and spilled 

Three boys blood, did they know a trap had been lain?
