World Of Strange Design Lyrics - The River & The Thread - Rosanne Cash

Well you're not from around here 

You're probably not our kind 

It's hot from March to Christmas 

And other things you'll find 

() 

Won't fit your old ideas 

Their line is shifting sands, 

You walk across a ghostly bridge 

To a crumbling promise land 

() 

If Jesus came from Mississippi 

If tears began to rise 

I guess I'll start at the beginning 

The world of strange design

Well I'd like to have the ocean 

But I'd settle for the rain 

Humbly as for true love 

There was such a price to pay 

() 

This room was filled with trouble 

And sacraments deceived 

And I'm with you, we're in the shade 

Of his weeping willow tree 

() 

If Jesus came from Mississippi 

If tears began to rise 

I'll have to go back to the beginning 

In this world of strange design

We talk about your drinking 

But not about your thirst 

You set off through the mine field 

Like you were round in first 

() 

So open up their window 

And hand the baby through 

Point up towards the ghostly bridge 

And she'll know what to do 

() 

If Jesus came from Mississippi 

If tears began to rise 

They'll have to go back to the beginning 

In this world of strange design
