Precious Cargo - Live

Lyrics for Precious Cargo - Live

Precious cargo at the river Me swimming, just to get across With the babies on my shoulder Grab my neck so they don't get lost We made it through the jungle, no water there for two weeks Many dead that we walked by and thugs hiding in the trees We made it to the border I jumped and I was detained Split me from my family Now the light begins to fade They took me to the cold room, where I sat down on the floor Just a foil for a blanket For seventeen days or more We sleep on the floor for seventeen days We sleep on the floor like a dog We sleep on the floor for seventeen days Foil blanket, shivering hard We sleep on the floor for seventeen days We sleep on the floor like a dog We sleep on the floor for seventeen days Foil blanket, shivering hard (Inshallah) (Inshallah) Once I was a little boy, out in the cassava fields I dream of it sometimes at night, and none of this seems real I've been in here for thirteen months I walked all of this way But me no never seen no handcuffs 'til I get to the USA No, me no never seen no handcuffs 'til I get to the USA I don't know why you would lie on me, the man from the I.C.E And I don't know why he hate on me, the man from the I.C.E Oh, I.C.E, I.C.E, me hate you, oh I.C.E Oh, I.C.E, I.C.E, me hate you, oh I.C.E And I don't know why you would lie on me, the man from the I.C.E And I don't know why he hate on me, the man from the I.C.E Oh, I.C.E, I.C.E, I hate you, oh I.C.E Oh, I.C.E, I.C.E, I bring you down, oh I.C.E Precious Precious Precious Precious Mississippi, Louisiana River, Barbary, Gina, LaSalle Mississippi, Louisiana Richwood, Adams (?)
