Waylon Jennings - The Hunger Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • (Lee J. Fry)
  • They said in her younger days
  • Her beauty was enough to drive men wild
  • But the hunger in her body then
  • Was not the hunger of some lonely child.
  • Like a butterfly in springtime
  • Searching every field for loving's sweetest rose
  • The embrace of many strangers
  • Still could not release her from the hold.
  • In the backstreets and the bedrooms
  • All she's found is disappointments bitterly
  • While the love that she's too often found
  • Was enough to satisfy her needs.
  • She's older than the years she holds
  • And ageing fast with each day passing by
  • On a downhill run to nowhere
  • 'Cause the hunger never can be satisfied.
  • The reflection in her mirror's not the image
  • She remembers in her mind
  • Her beauty has been eaten by the hunger
  • And the acid winds of time.
  • She has danced the tune her demons played
  • And payed the piper dearly for his song
  • Empty now of all her pride but still inside
  • Her hunger's just as strong.
  • --- Instrumental ---
  • They said in her younger days
  • Her beauty was enough to drive men wild
  • But the hunger in her body then
  • Was not the hunger of some lonely child...
