Hungry World · letra

I was cruisin' the drag in my car Flipped the radio on and it's the news I just don't like what I hear I've got a little sister, she was alright, Jack But someone turned her on to a little bit of crack I lived through the sixties but now we're hanging by a thread I took a deep breath, turned to my girl and said
Oh, oh, oh, baby it's a hungry world Oh, oh, oh, baby it's a hungry world
Just a fool to believe the things that they said That it's the all American way To give you a brighter day - but somethin' ain't right Anybody smart, they ought to be scared We gotta get back to the truth and some prayer I want to feel peace and wind whistle past my head I put down the top, turned to my girl and said
chorus: Oh, oh, oh, baby it's a hungry world Oh, oh, oh, baby it's a hungry world Oh, oh, oh, baby it's a hungry world Oh, oh, oh, baby it's a hungry world
It's hard to resist, it's hard to stay free It's hard to exist and have your own identity But whatever they come up with don't let 'em take you down
Anybody smart, they ought to be scared We gotta get back to the truth and some prayer I lived through the sixties but now we're hanging by a thread I thought about God, turned to my girl and said
