John Brown's Body

Starver
No water no wine Is ever left me You take me through the starving time Oh love you are divine No water no wine No never says she Will we take bread before the starvers dine We keeping alive Given a dollar and that's all we get Cook all the food at night we shiver and fret You better know that you have a poison No antidote, find the medicine Check out the con man and company Do what they want with the green trees and economy We seen a dream it'll catch you one day Hope not another hungry Chorus Over and over shes getting weak Forgotten. She's starving Each morning she keep telling me she wants it We want it, we want it Woe that the starver in a land of plenty In need, in need SongtexteOh for the soil we keep chanting louder Make it shower, make a garden grow Didn't you know how the story ends? The wind don't fly in a single direction Break up miles of your best defense that you make, it's a wicked invention Why can't we feed them here Gather them all to me We hungry now cause we been in need or we get rude And we need it soon Chorus (Thanks to roman for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
