River In A Cage Lyrics - Rusted Root

Well through the window she comes 

And through the window she comes 

She got a little rope tied, tied to her leg 

And where it leads to, I don't know 

But you can hand your babies up to the higher ground 

And to the hairy one's blessed upon the crown 

I'm comin' down like a river in a cage 

The monkey see, the monkey do 

I'm comin' down like a river in cage 

I'll run my hands through you 

And the walls begin to howl 

And the walls begin to howl 

For my lady run, nothing left but her scent 

Oh gracious mother, oh gracious light 

Speak to me inside your womb 

Oh gracious father, hold me to the higher ground 

So comin' down like a river in a cage 

The monkey see the monkey do 

I'm comin' down like a river in a cage 

I'll run my hands through you 

I'm comin' down to what you say, hey, hey 

I'm comin' down to what you say, hey, hey 

I'm comin' down to what you say, hey, hey 

I'm comin' down 

And many dreams will be spoken 

To walk along in your breath 

And many freedoms chosen 

To lift the law outta your bed 

I'm comin' down, down to see the world 

Tell em' that who am I 

I'm comin' down, down to see the world 

Tell em' that who am I 

No, oh
