I picked up a woman lying flat on her back
She was light as a feather, just skin and bone

She was breaking out of fever,
F
Am
Fever, too much strife
And there she was sitting
with her legs apart
Then she jumped at the
sound of the dog depart
Like a lion she sprang to life
And as the light showed on her face
There was no hunger in her eyes
Hunger

Years of fear, little booth of days
She told me that she'd wandered round
Ever since her sweet boy let her down
I saw hunger in her eyes
Hunger
