Ambush on her body, down by the dam
She wasnt afraid of anybody until, down by the dam
Criminal running from the law,
Hiding in the high grass
The lady saw death from a mescaline high
High in the high grass
And the police aint never around
When you need them,
But the criminals ready to pounce
If you get near him
Vigilante fires, the flames are gettin higher
Down by the dam
Tempers gettin hot oh theres blood for the pot,
Down by the dam
