Hey sugarcane tell me no lie, where will you run to when the water runs high?
To have it your way I'll see you in the pines
There's too much to lose now for me to have mine
There's no need to fear, no need to hide, open your window and let me inside
I will hear you out, I'll swallow your pride
I'll row the high seas, I'll ride the high tide
Can't you tell by my eyes that I'm done telling lies
When you say you don't need me no more, I think you just forgot
Call me a fake, call me a liar, all me a traitor if that's what you're like
But my heart's on my sleeve, my feet on high ground
I've plucked all my feathers, I've shot all my rounds
Can't you tell by my lies that I've lost both my eyes
When you say you don't need me no more I think you just forgot
And oh how the time flies by, and oh how the winds do howl
A bird without wings, a fly with no eyes, a hand without fingers, a choice without a price
A book without leaves, a cry with no sound, a wheel with no axis, a land with no past
Hey brother cane, tell me no lie, where will you run to when the water runs high?
