The Face Of The Nation |
| As I run through this life |
| Sometimes it breaks my heart |
| Seein' old people goin' downtown |
| Stumblin' their way through the dark |
| And the little babies cry |
| For their mothers' warmth |
| Sometimes I feel so helpless |
| I don’t know where to start |
| And the face of the nation |
| Keeps changin' and changin' |
| The face of the nation |
| I don’t recognize it no more |
| The face of the nation |
| The face of the nation |
| So many lonely people |
| Damn those broken dreams |
| Oh yes it could be better |
| You can say that about anything |
| Some got it worse than me |
| Some got it worse than you |
| You see the people starvin' underneath the tree |
| And you wonder what happened to the golden rule |
| And the face of the nation |
| Keeps changin' and changin' |
| The face of the nation |
| I don’t recognize it no more |
| The face of the nation |
| The face of the nation |
| You know babe I’m gonna keep on tryin' |
| To put things right |
| If only for me and you |
| Cause the devil sleeps tonight |
| And the face of the nation |
| Keeps changin' and changin' |
| The face of the nation |
| I don’t recognize it no more |
| The face of the nation |
| The face of the nation |
| And the face of the nation |
| Keeps changin' and changin' |
| The face of the nation |
| I don’t recognize it no more |
| The face of the nation |
| The face of the nation |
