Rusty Cage (Album Version)

Rusty Cage – Johnny Cash

You wired me awake

And hit me with a hand of broken nails

You tied my lead and pulled my chain

To watch my blood begin to boil

But I'm gonna break

I'm gonna break my

Gonna break my rusty cage and run

I'm gonna break

I'm gonna break my

Gonna break my rusty cage and run

Too cold to start a fire

I'm burning diesel burning dinosaur bones

I'll take the river down to still water

And ride a pack of dogs

I'm gonna break

I'm gonna break my

Gonna break my rusty cage and run

I'm gonna break

I'm gonna break my

Gonna break my rusty cage and run

When the forest burns along the road

Like God's eyes in my headlights

When the dogs are lookin' for their bones

And it's rainin' icepicks on your steel shore

I'm gonna break

I'm gonna break my

I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run

I'm gonna break

I'm gonna break my

Gonna break my rusty cage and run

I'm gonna break

I'm gonna break my

Gonna break my rusty cage and run

I'm gonna break

I'm gonna break my

Gonna break my rusty cage and run
