The Hunger
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some will only lay their money down
On the strongest one others take
Another way around they want the
Fastest gun I know about it, heard
It all before and I believe there is
Somethin’ more a power that can
Lay the quick and the mighty right
Under
I’ll take the one with the hunger
I’ll take the one with the hunger
Some had to fight tooth and nail
Just to get this far struggle and
Sweat each and every day knowing
What the chances are hope’s fading
And wearin’ thin can’t give up and
They won’t give in with the wolf at
The door diggin’ his hole right under
It takes a soul with the hunger it
Takes a soul with the hunger
Long ago I learned a simple fact
That you keep on going cause you
Can’t go back and if it don’t do you
In, it’ll make you stronger give you
A soul with the, give you a soul with
The hunger
Long ago I learned a simple fact
That you keep on going cause you
Can’t go back and if it don’t do you
In, it’ll make you stronger give you
A soul with, give you a soul with the
Hunger
It takes a soul with the hunger
Eat up with the hunger
