Uma Menina Uma Cigana Lyrics

Lyric discussion by clovus 

Cover art for Uma Menina Uma Cigana lyrics by Gogol Bordello

The lines:

"As if the birds are free From the sidewalks of the sky"

remind me of the last lines of "Ballad in Plain D" by Bob Dylan:

"Ah, my friends from the prison, they ask unto me, 'How good, how good does it feel to be free?' And I answer them most mysteriously, 'Are birds free from the chains of the skyway?'"
