This is Fiona Apple's rendition of Jimmy Cliff's "Sitting in Limbo" (live version from Bad Girl).

This was supposedly recorded in 1996, but I have no way of knowing for sure.

Lyrics:
Sitting here in limbo
And I know it won't be long
Sitting here in limbo
Like a bird ain't got a song
They keep putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on

Sitting here in limbo
Waiting for the dice to roll
Sitting here in limbo
Got some time to search my soul
They keep putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on

I don't know where I'm going
But I know where I've been
I don't know what life will show me
But I know what I've seen
Tried my hand at love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
This little girl is moving on

Sitting here in limbo
Waiting for the dice to roll
Sitting here in limbo
Knowing that I have to go
But I know they'll keep putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on

I don't know where I'm going
But I know where I've been
I don't know what life will show me
But I know what I've seen
Tried my hand at love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
This little girl is moving on

Sitting
Sitting
Sitting in
Sitting in limbo
Limbo

  • The sound quality isn't ideal, but that's MP3 itself. I'm just posting what I have.
