Lyrics
River in a Cage
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well through the window she comes,
and through the window she comes,
she got a little rope tied, tied to her leg,
where it leads to I don't know,
But you can hand your babies up to the higher ground.
To the hairy one's blessed upon their 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 to you
