Lyrics
MOMMY I’M HUNGRY
IT’S A COLD DECEMBER
SHE’S IN DEEP DESPAIR
ALL ALONE WITH HER SON
IT JUST DIDN’T SEEM FAIR
IT WAS NEVER SUPPOSED
TO TURN OUT THIS WAY
SHE HAD BIGGER PLANS
FOR A BETTER DAY
MOMMY I’M HUNGRY
WE HAVE NOTHING TO EAT
HOW COME THERE’S NO FOOD
OR ANY HEAT
MOMMY I’M HUNGRY
I DON’T FEEL VERY GOOD
I KNOW I’M JUST THREE
IF I COULD HELP I WOULD
SHE WENT & GOT PREGNANT
HAD TO DROP OUT OF SCHOOL
HER BOYFRIEND LEFT HER
SHE FELT LIKE A FOOL
SHE HAD A LITTLE BOY
THE LOVE OF HER LIFE
BUT THE STRUGGLE WAS ENDLESS
IT CUT LIKE A KNIFE
(CHORUS)
WHY WERE THEY HUNGRY
AND WHY WERE THEY COLD
SHE HAD NO GREAT ANSWER
SHE FELT REALLY OLD
NOT ENOUGH MONEY
FOR ENOUGH FOOD ON THE TABLE
SHE LIVED IN A SLUM
DID ALL SHE WAS ABLE
LIFE AIN’T ALWAYS EASY
AND IT AIN’T ALWAYS FAIR
OUR WORTH IS NOT MEASURED
BY THE CLOTHES THAT WE WEAR
(CHORUS
