Cactus

I'll sting you like a cactus

The desert can get lonely

The weather isn't kind

I had two hands to hold me

Til he took off in the night

Hat over his horns

He's the devil in disguise

I dressed myself in thorns

So it wouldn't happen twice

Oh, I try to warn them

Oh, I'm no good for them

Easy on the eyes like a piece of paradise

A place to rest your boots when you're only passing by

But don't unpack your bags yet, boy

I'll hurt you out of habit

And I'd get back on the road before it happens

I'll sting you like a cactus

My heart was full of gold

Now it's the deepest shade of blue

What another cowboy broke looks like treasure to you

Oh, I try to warn them

Oh, I'm no good for them

Easy on the eyes like a piece of paradise

A place to rest your boots when you're only passing by

But don't unpack your bags yet

Boy, I'll hurt you out of habit

And I'd get back on the road before it happens

I'll sting you like a cactus

I'll sting you like a cactus

I'll sting you like a cactus

Burn you like a flame

Ashes to ashes

Won't be coming back again

I'll sting you like a cactus

Burn you like a flame

Ashes to ashes

Till you're cursing my name

Easy on the eyes like a piece of paradise

A place to rest your boots when you're only passing by

But don't unpack your bags yet

Boy I'll hurt you out of habit

And I'd get back on the road before it happens

I'll sting you like a cactus
