Mouths to Feed |
The field’s a desert, |
Not a place to sow a seed. |
The dust has settled, |
And the rich man ignored a plea. |
What once was a bountiful place, |
To lay down the plough, |
Is just a no man’s land, |
Howling in the dust now. |
Why are the men in suits still able to cheat and thieve, |
While I’m still tending this land, |
Trying to scrounge a dime for a mouth to feed? |
And the dust has come and choked up my lungs, |
And covered with tumbleweeds. |
The only rain that falls on this land are, |
The tears that fall from me. |
The tears that fall from me. |
The tears that fall from me. |
Woo woo, woo woo, |
Woo, woo, woo. |
Why are the men in suits still able to cheat and thieve, |
While I’m still tending this land, |
Trying to scrounge a dime for a mouth to feed? |
And the dust has come and choked up my lungs, |
And covered with tumbleweeds. |
The only rain that falls on this land are, |
The tears, |
Are the tears, |
Are the tears, |
Are the tears, |
That fall from me |
