Verse 1:
I took a highway over the mountain
To the other side of a city full of lights.
I didnOt know what i would find there.
When I got there, i guess somethinO just felt right.

I came across a dusty cowboy
WhoOd been hanginO round at least ten years or so.
He said, OThere ainOt too much to do here,
So I ride my horse and watch my children growO.

Chorus:
ItOs called Pahrump, the heart of the new old west.
ItOs a one of a kind little desert town,
NothinO like it in the whole U.S.
It means Owater rockO in Indian talk.
WonOt ya come and be my guest
In the heart of the new old west.

Verse 2:
It didnOt take long Ofore they started cominO
From the north nO south and the east nO western shores.
They built roads and banks and houses.
We even got ourselves a Wall-Mart super store.

Repeat chorus

Guitar solo

Verse 3:
Well, some folks say weOre a little bit backwards.
We donOt have time for high society.
ItOs a little like heaven with the heat of hell,
So we live and love and laugh and just let it be.

Repeat chorus twice

Coda:
In the heart of the new old west.
In the heart of the new old west.
