I was born in the desert on the day of the dead Ever since then it's been tears blood and sweat I am a handsome young woman now, with a long way to go And if I can not be fast, wll then I'll have to be slow And I must not be sad, but happy and gay Well, that's what the boss and everybody say I must not be troubled by the doings and the done And if I can not be slow, well then I can always run Through the valley of death with the sun in my soul Straight up from the bottom line to the Hollywood bowl And I shall fear no evil for I know the rule of the game Well it 's One for the money Two for the show Three to get ready Rock'n'roll I have travelled the world with not much left to see But dead fish in the water and dead birds in the trees I am a handsome young woman now with no place to stay But if there is, it will be coming my way And there always is beauty in every word And if there is not it, must not be heard Is there something disturbing, it must not be seen And if I can not be good, well then I'll have to be mean Through the valley of death with the sun in my eyes From the one true word to a whole bunch of lies And I shall fear no evil for I know the rule of the game Well it's One for the money Two for the show Three to get ready Rock'n'roll
