Verse

It's a long way back

 From where I've fallen down

 It's a very hard fall

 It's very cruel town

 And my dress is torn

 And I've got no jewels

 And I'm hungry for

 A life a little less cruel

 Some dignity

 And not too much sorrow

 Just a little bit of hope

 Hold out for tomorrow

Chorus

 Oh I don't care what it takes my friend

 I will never go hungry, go hungry again

 Oh and I don't care what I have to pretend

 I will never go hungry, go hungry again

Verse 2

It's a long ride home

And my head is bowed

And you're no comfort

To me now

And it's fully loaded

And it's set on stun

At least I know

That I have won

And my wig's on crooked

And I've got no jewels

I rock back and forth

And I wait for you

Chorus 2

And I don't care what it takes my friend

I will never go hungry, go hungry again

Oh and I don't care what have to defend

I will never go hungry, go hungry again

Verse 3

And out of it all

I have survived

From the fires of hell

I am alive

Since it crush your spirit

Survived the mess you've made

Oh god can you hear us?

You're my salvation made

And it's time for me, yeah

To take a stand

And it's time for me, yeah

To be a man

Chorus 3

And I don't care what it takes my friend

I will never go hungry, go hungry again

Oh and I don't care what I have to pretend

I will never go hungry, go hungry again

And the phoenix she rises, she is sure to descend

She will never go hungry, go hungry again

And you're looking to me more and more like a godsend

We will never go hungry, go hungry again

And we owe each other nothing, there's no one left here to offend

We will never go hungry, go hungry again
