Hunger Song

  • (Joyce Brookshire)

       Who's gonna feed the hungry
       Who's gonna feed the poor
       Who's gonna stand and help me fight
       That lean wolf that's howling at my door

    When I wake up in the morning
    To face another day
    Hunger's hanging over my head
    There's a weakness in my stomach,. Lord
    It's always been that way
    Hunger's hanging over my head

    When the kids come in from playing
    There's nothing there to eat
    Hunger's hanging over my head
    It makes me feel so helpless
    From my head down to my feet
    Hunger's hanging over my head

    And when the day is over
    And it's time to go to bed
    Hunger's hanging over my head
    My prayers are for tomorrow, Lord
    To see my family fed
    Hunger's hanging over my head

    (as sung by Guy & Candie Carawan)
