Lyrics
Somewhere down south of here There's a woman with an armload of grass Weaving a basket That’ll float the Rio Grande She'll send her baby on it The river running wild and fast To curry the favor Of whatever Pharaoh owns the land A seed of an idea, like mustard greens Like newborn fingers Curled and half asleep Awake From her mouth, a vineyard Of swears and hallelujahs entwined A new wine is vinted A blend of sweet commandment Oh, to hell with the semantics The camel and the cable confide The eye of a needle Is tall enough to stand inside A seed of an idea, like mustard greens Like newborn fingers Curled and half asleep Awake with a thunder from underneath Stretch up and reach through The hardest part of me
