LYRICS:

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 t boil

but i’m gonna break
i’m gonna break my
i’m 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
i’m gonna break my rusty cage and run

hits like a phillips head
into my brain
it’s gonna be too dark
to sleep again
cutting my teeth on bars
and rusty chains, i’m 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 looking
for their bones
and it’s raining icepicks
on your steel shore

i’m gonna break
i’m gonna break my
i’m gonna break my rusty cage and run

One thought on “Johnny Cash – Rusty Cage

  1. Rusty cage “SoundGarden”.
    You hit me in the head with a hand of broken nails.

    Johnny Cash was pissed off at a record executive.
    He broke into the AR recording office.
    What the guy told me who said he worked there.
    Johnny shit all over the office… then proceeded to throw dollar bills all over the office of the record company.
    AKA “Johnny Cash”.
    Is it true?
    Who knows….. but its great urban legend.
    I gotta get that black and white poster of him flipping the bird.
