Story behind the song
Lost days in the mountains and deserts of the southwest
Lyrics
Mescalito By Bowman & Brown Walked the desert in the morning light. Set up camp on a full day’s hike. Sending thoughts to the spirit guide. The rocks were red with a brilliant light. Red rocks frame the coming night. A great spirit cleansed our souls, With gentle feelings in control. The sacred beat danced through our heads With blood flowing fast to raise the dead. Red blood flowing to raise the dead. Mescalito in the day’s delight. Bring joyous feelings into night. Mescalito with nature was right. The sunset fading from our sight. Colors drifting to starlight. (break) As night approached nature was kind. Our bodies meshed like beautiful wine. We laughed at life with a haunting respect. To know the world without regret. The world we know without regret. Visions form as night passed on. With cults and politics a token nod. Universe merged to irony. Thoughts are those that plainly see. Our hearts and minds are plain to see. Mescalito in the day’s delight. Bring joyous feelings into night. Mescalito with nature was right. The sunset fading from our sight. Colors drifting to starlight. Sunset turning to the night.
