Natalie Merchant - The Man in the Wilderness lyrics

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
