Death By Thirst

I am told there are many streams in the desert
In subterranean tunnels beneath scorching sands,
Where cool, refreshing waters constantly exert,
I am told, there are many streams in the desert.
And many a man has died in this realm of thirst
Some came to an unfortunate end by evil hands
I am told there are many streams in the desert
In subterranean tunnels beneath scorching sands.
