Lyrics Natalie Merchant – The Man In The Wilderness
Text:
The Man in the wilderness
He asked of me
How many strawberries grow in the salt sea?
And I answered him, as I thought good
As many a ship sails in the wood
The Man in the wilderness
He asked me, Why
His hare could swim and his pig could fly?
And I answered him, as I thought best
They were both born in a cuckoo’s nest
The Man in the wilderness
Asked me to tell
Tell all the sands in the sea and I counted them well
And with the grain, well, not one more
I answered him, you go make sure
Said with the grain, well, not one more
I answered him, you go make sure
I answered him, you…you go make sure
