Lyrics:
The desert dust fills your eyes
The rattlesnake shake takes you by surprise
The coyotes sing in the calm of night
The cactus water goes down like fire
The City of Angels ain’t too far from here
And when I need some sin, it’s always near
The Caliente warms my bones
And the Valley of Death is a skeleton’s home
The desert toad takes me for a ride
The Lizard King’s always by my side
The hawk and eagle just want to fly
But the horizon’s hot, and the air is dry
The venom stings from the scorpion
The owl watches where I’ve been
My lips are cracked from the howlin’ wind
I need to quench my thirst and heal my skin
The mountains like paintings
The Joshua Tree
Gram died in room eight and left it all to Keith
Just a couple of miles from the Salton Sea
But a little closer to heaven for someone like me

Billy's voice ages like a fine, premium whiskey. Drink up, friends! 🥃
His voice is just amazing...so deep and resonant.
Exactly.. like a Mark Lanegan or a Leonard Cohen but with an incredible guitar sound
@@keefriff99 you right Lemmy !
And wonderful Grim Reaper guitar.
Whiskey for the ears.
Song cries out for another 10 minutes of Billy playing😎
Real music real people 💯 get it!!!
Billy Gibbons voice is like water flowin' in the desert
Water ?? Bourbon flow yeah!!
Vynikající blues rock
"the desert toad takes me for a ride, the Lizard King´s always by my side". The coolest lyrics.
This is one of the best things Billy has ever done.
The “Reverend” Billy Gibbons always delivers soulful and unique music. 🙏🎸
WOW he's created a masterpiece. I listened to this a 6 times in a row
Love the Gram Parsons/Keith Richards reference! Awesome song.
Dude! You’re a walking encyclopedia of the blues!
Classic slow laid back blues. The man is so cool
Any thing by Billy is ROCK n ROLL DADDY-O ! ✌
Positively dripping and saturated with mood, which is something that today's artists mostly don't even attempt. Even without the lyrics it'd make you think of film noir and road trips and the desert. Makes me wish I had a nearby hot desert where I could go for a long drive with this tune cranked up (bowing to the Reverend Billy...). I feel saved....
The city of angels is 160 miles away, down by the Salton sea Jesus waits to go to heaven y'all
Wow may save rock and roll with this one. Natural born killers
Thanks for your love and support towards my work. I really appreciate, text me privately with your full name and your favorite song💕

An instant classic from this amazing legend.
The soundtrack to my retirement 🤟🌵🤟
Holy shit Billy G! Robbie Robertson's Crazy River now has a worthy successor. What a story teller you is man!
That Daniel Lanois feel
Exactly, me too.
Totally
He's channelling the Doors & Leonard Cohen! Nice!
And Tom Waits.
and Robbie Robertson "Somewhere Down the Crazy River"
@@AbbieHoffmansGhost I was thinking Tom Waits crossed w/ ZZTop when listening to it!
@@sjwill1956 Beat me to it. ;)
Back in the day they
would get a gig with
the Doors ,I felt the
same vibes!!Eactly...
Awesome from one of the last true legends still with us. Coolest dude alive!
Wish my daddy was here to hear this but I know he sees EVERYTHING 💗 Thank you for this blessing! In memory of the "Eagle" ❤❤❤❤
Billy thx for ZZ Top and Hardware. Dusty Rest In Peace brotha. I still have your key chain hanging off the cigarette lighter in my Tuxedo Black 1964 Corvette coup. I’m still a sharp dressed man in Phoenix.
This song is brilliant. So picturesque and cinematic feels like you’re a Outlaw in 1897 in a western!
Reminds me of road trips across the desert in my 55 Chevy back in the 70's & 80's. 🥰
Whoever played drums on that is one of the luckiest people alive. What an honor.
That’s me , yes I am lucky and honored
I met you once when the cult open for Metallica on the injustice for all tour. You did a cymbal grab with your teeth and you showed me that your tooth was cracked. I’ve played drums my whole life as well. Good luck brother. God bless
And if you find the time. I’m the drummer on the ATOMIC BUTCHWAX 1 & 2. One is the best. I totally go for it. Enjoy the day
@@mattsorum9408 a desert high five to you, I'm also a drummer ,you kept it right where it belonged ...
Matt's resume is unreal, GnR Gult Velvet Revolver was in a group with Geezer Butler list goes on n on... Mad Respect to Mr.Sorum
Superb track! What a vibe!
Shadows lurk across the horizon,
Watering deserts with tears of Titan,
Storm from Atlantis comes with lightning,
Serpent is cornered and promisses bitting.
Greetings from Europe.
Yeah Baby ... this is what we call music! 😎☝👍
Mysteriously beautiful...
Oh, hell yeah!! Reminds me of that old Robbie Robertson tune. Some cool voodoo goin' on🎸🎶
YES! Somewhere Down Crazy River
@@12Bossfan That's it!!
.also.!.
Exquisite!
Absolutely outstanding , great jam ! he is a gift to music, saw them live many years ago and could not hear for 3 days ,loved it !!
King of cool. The Reverend Billy Fitzgerald Gibbons.
For all the tone and testimony in Texas , nationwide From the Pyramids to the Alamo and all points in between The Rev Billy F G stands time.. For the true artist that is we appreciate.
From one Texan to the next I tip my hat.
That Desert trip really got the juices flowing. Great job. Good stuff. Keep it coming we're enjoying this new chapter of your life.
Loving The Billy Gibbons from all my heart and soul.
Born in Texas, this is a fine example of why I still live here, in the middle of absolute nowhere, God's Country. ZZ.......
This should be the main title of True Detective season 4! Really awesome track and video! 10/10 would recommend.
Billy is true Rock n Roll! It was born in him a true lifer. Keep it rocking Billy!
Billy played a lot of rock, but I don't know if he played as much as the drummer in this song. look it up
Love the ethereal dreamstate. Reminiscent of "Somewhere Down the Crazy River" by Robbie Robertson.
Exactly what I thought of when I first heard this awesome song 🤘🎵🤘
A cross between ‘Frank’s wild years’ and ‘the Hitchhiker’, possibly one Billy’s best tracks in decades ( and thats saying a lot)..I really dig the vibe on this one.
I've been a big ZZ Top fan for decades, and I have no idea why I haven't dipped into Rev. Willy G's solo stuff. This track is just wicked beyond belief.
Thanks for the tune Billy. GREAT. Love ya man.
Billy is a God among us
The sound quality is great .. ... . .. . . .... Lyrics are inspirational .
Thank you Billy to make this amazing music!!!

Jim Morrison is a legend, billy is a legend, and the drummer playing behind billy gibbons is a legend too, you just didn't notice him!! lolz go look it up
@@davidanalyst671 I know who they are. Im 55 I don't feel the need to mention everybody. Robin Trower is a legend, The Moody Blues are legends. Just because I watch a video and I don't mention everyone meant you assumed. SMMFH

There is something special about the desert. Its starkness lays the truth at your feet.
I lived out in the desert in a tent for a coupla years. It has a magic all it's own. The Apaches had ridden all over the places I was looking at. And Tombstone was only about 35 miles away.
The blue's, it's in his blood!
The storyline just keep coming...
He's a vision quest and beyond...
The Blues meets Leonard Cohan 💙 love it!
There's a plastic iguana that lives on the dashboard of my Chevelle. He's been ridin around on various dashboards since my dad bought him back in the 90s.
MY BEST FRIEND,MY SON AND HIS GIRL JUST GOT BACK FROM JOSHUA TREE INN & ROOM 8
...WHAT A TRIP..NO PLACE LIKE THE CALIFORNIA DESERT.....GHOSTS OF THE PAST ..EVERYWHERE....
Deep Soulful tune... well done Billy
31 plus years living in the desert... Me ...and now Gibbons.... the Chemehuevis....the Cahuiillas . the Navajo...the Mohave and the Aha Makav peoples.... all understand this....quote.. " Desert High "
Just love it all awesome 💕💕💕
@Billy Gibbons your awesome 💕
Exeeellent !!!! Bravo Mr Gibbons !!!
He has that voice that you can recognize, like Brian Johnson of AC/DC, and few others.
This song and video are bad ass!
Just getting to watch a video that gives the perspective of cruising with The Reverend Willy G. is as cool as it gets. I couldn't imagine getting to hang with him for a day.
Texas Blues Lord have mercy Keep On Trucken$$$$$$$$$
Really cool song Billy. Rest In peace Dusty.
Thank you Billy !
Love love love.
What an amazing song. As Dusty Street said, this and Robbie Robertson's "Somewhere Down The Lazy River" go together.
I saw Billy at Strings and Things guitar shop in Memphis in 1972. Nice guy. They played at Ole Miss in those days. Rock on Billy!!
That needs to be about 15 minutes longer during the solo. Beautiful video, brilliant presentation. Spoken word is the music of the future.
I want this played at my funeral! What a song to remember by.
Billy is so Fu-king COOL!
Wow,, so chilled mow, but i now want to go the beach!
Now that was Art. 👍
Incredible
Hey Billy, you remember playing the Tarrant County Convention Theater? You guys were so tight that night. I was about 17, so it would have been around 1972. It was a small venue, I think there were maybe 1000 seats. The best blues rock I've ever heard live.
Looked it up, it was 3066 seats, seemed much smaller but that was a long time ago.
Brilliant Rev. Gibbons
F***kin Beautiful!!!!!
Speedometer doesn't work....was wondering what speed he was going...or was he........love the vib of this jam...😘😎🌵🐾🦉🌵🌞
Excellent album!
Billy F Gibbons... Oozes cool from every pore and note.
Nailed. Desert. Life. Yessss
