Lyrics Sonic Youth – Death Valley ’69

Thurston

Groooooahhh!

You’re right

You’re right

And now in the canyon
Out in the yonder
She started to holler

So I had to hit it

I got sand in my mouth
And you got sun in your eyes
Blind
And you wanted to get there
But I couldn’t go faster

So I started to hit it
So I started to hit it
I started to hit it

both

Coming down
Sadie, I love it
Now now now
Death valley ’69

You’re right
You’re right
You’re right

I was on the wrong track
We’re deep in the valley
How deep in the gulley

She started to holler
I didn’t wanna
I didn’t wanna

Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Deep in the valley
In the trunk of an old car
In the back of a chevvy

But you couldn’t go faster

Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it

Coming down
Sadie, I love it
Now now now
Death valley ’69
Death valley ’69
Death valley ’69
Death valley ’69

Lydia Lunch

You were right

And now in the canyon
Way out in the yonder

You got sand in your mouth
I got sun in your eyes
Blinded

I wanted to get there

You couldn’t go faster

Hit it

Ieieieioooooaoaoaieeih!
