Wild Fruit 04:13
I came across a road to lead me from the wilderness I’ve been wandering the hills and the valleys of darkness I’ve been running with the wolves through the maze of temptation I’ve been hanging with the lost ones and chasing the wrong women Give me wild fruit one more bite Give me wild fruit As sweet as the blush of night I’m hanging on tight Ayoreo You can’t drag me to the light You can slash and burn these woods until this land is clear Until the creek beds are dry and the birds have disappeared You can smoke me from the hills but you can’t bribe me to leave But you’ll never tame the lost ones and you’ll never take their spirit from me Give me wild fruit one more bite Give me wild fruit As sweet as the blush of night I’m hanging on tight, Ayoreo You can’t drag me to the light Ayoreo, you can’t tame me Ayoreo, you can’t tame me Ayoreo, you can’t drag me from the wild copyright © 2012 Ryan Bailey

When I die I’m gonna rise like the mist in the valley and sink like a river stone The pale moon shines, it streams through the pines a beacon for this lonesome road I pause next to a charred oak tree by a stream that’s pure and cold I quench my thirst and glimpse my face under the stars of Van Gogh Sweet Georgia rose I breathe you deep in the corn blue night I’ve got a ways to go to see you darling and look into your pilgrim eyes The sun’s gonna rise and still I’ll be travelin’ headin’ through old Cherokee lands I can smell their fires, hear the ghosts of the women Shedding tears in the sand They cry out about all I’ve done wrong and I feel my old fears rise But then I catch the strains of a country song Like a prayer in the gathering light Sweet Georgia rose I breathe you deep in the corn blue night I’ve got a ways to go to see you darling and look into your pilgrim eyes The sun’s gonna rise and still I’ll be traveling Toward your pilgrim eyes like two lakes in the distance Your pilgrim eyes like two lakes in the distance Your pilgrim eyes like two lakes copyright © 2011 Ryan Bailey
