Whoa now, take a walk downtown there
Don't make it hard to believe in you
Oh, my number one occupation
Raised in a lion's den
If you’re ever in Memphis
Don't make it hard to believe in you"
I said, "If you can’t believe me
You best stop down Minglewood
Well, oh, you know it’s true
'Cause we all need each other
Raised in a lion's den
You best stop down Minglewood
I was, I was born in the desert
All the women sure look good
Raised in a lion's den
If you’re ever in Memphis
I was born in the desert
Whoa, my number one occupation
Is stealing women from their men
I was, I was born in the desert
Whoa, if you can’t believe me
