Ambush on her body, down by the dam
She wasn`t 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 ain`t never around
When you need them,
But the criminal`s ready to pounce
If you get near him
Vigilante fires, the flames are gettin` higher
Down by the dam
Temper`s gettin` hot oh there`s blood for the pot,
Down by the dam
