Shakin' My Cage
Joe Perry · Joe Perry [2005]
Once in a while you get a rumor of you
I'm dying for you baby and your heaven's touch
Can't do without you 'cause you're much too much
You think you're just turning the page
I gotta tell you that you're shakin' my cage
Shakin' my cage, shakin' my cage
Shake, shakin', shakin' my cage
Shakin' my cage, shakin' my cage
Shake, shakin' shakin' my cage
Everybody's feels like they got something to do
Drive around the corner hit someplace new
Flows live a river 'cause it can't be slow
No room for heartache it's a real fast loan
You think you're just turning the page
I gotta tell you that you're shakin' my cage
Shakin' my cage, shakin' my cage
Shake, shakin', shakin' my cage
Shakin' my cage, shakin' my cage
Shake, shakin', shakin' my cage
I'm dying for you baby and your heaven's touch
My friends all tell me that you're much too much
They're all foolin', you can feel the crush
'Cause they all know that I got a royal clutch
You think you're just turning the page
I gotta tell you that you're shakin' my cage
Shakin' my cage, shakin' my cage
Shake, shakin', shakin' my cage
Shakin' my cage, shakin' my cage
Shake, shakin', shakin' my cage
Shakin' my cage, shakin' my cage
Shake, shake, shakin' my cage
Shakin' my cage, shakin' my cage
Shake, shake, shakin' my cage
Shakin' My Cage

It remains a key song in his discography for fans seeking the raw energy and classic rock sensibilities that have characterized his career for decades.
