Lyrics of The dirt of chimayo

"burn down the mission"
So said the noon day sun
On a wearisome expedition
When the vision quest had begun

Unbeknownst to the drifter
Unbeknownst to the solitary one
In the land of enchantment
With a strand of the story left undone

The dirt of chimayo
Make the crippled ones walk
Make the somber ones smile
And the silent ones talk

Took the path of the least resistance
To the place where the suffering people go
To touch the dirt of chimayo

Adobe tower
Past the wooden courtyard gates
Oh, the ancient healing power
From the inside emanates

Where the walking sticks gather
That were left by the travelers of faith, yeah
And a hero's bravado
Disappears with the look upon his face

The dirt of chimayo
Make the crippled ones walk
Make the somber ones smile
And the silent ones talk

Took the path of the least resistance
To the place where the suffering people go
To touch the dirt of chimayo

Lost and found, gone, then saved
Turned around and made my way
Lighter now, not so brave
Don't know how i made it to that place

Chimayo
Make the crippled ones walk
Make the somber ones smile
And the silent ones talk

Took the path of the least resistance
To the place where the suffering people go
To touch the dirt of chimayo, chimayo

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
