Hand to Mouth
[00:28.35] Jimmy got nothing made himself a name
[00:31.10] With a gun that he polished for a rainy day
[00:34.09] A smile and a quote from a vigilante movie
[00:37.85] Our boy jimmy just blew them all away
[00:42.59] He said it made him crazy
[00:46.35] Twenty five years living hand to mouth
[00:48.35] Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
[00:55.10] Sweet little baby on a big white doorstep
[00:58.59] She needs her mother but her mother is dead
[01:01.59] Just another hooker that the lucky can forget
[01:05.10] Just another hooker
[01:07.09] It happens everyday
[01:10.59] She loved her little baby
[01:13.59] But she couldn't bare to see her living
[01:15.60] Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
[01:24.09] I believe in the gods of America
[01:30.84] I believe in the land of the free
[01:36.59] But no one told me
[01:38.35] (No one told me)
[01:39.59] That the gods believe in nothing
[01:42.84] So with empty hands I pray
[01:46.35] And from day to hopeless day
[01:49.10] They still don't see me
[01:55.60] (See me)
[02:04.09] Everybody talks about the new generation
[02:07.35] Jump on the wagon or they'll leave you behind
[02:10.85] But no one gave a thought to the rest of the nation
[02:14.35] Like to help you buddy, but I haven't got the time
[02:21.09] Somebody shouted save me
[02:23.09] But everybody started living hand to mouth
[02:26.60] Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
[02:31.35] There's a big white lady
[02:33.34] On a big white doorstep
[02:35.35] She asked her daddy and her daddy said 'yes'
[02:38.35] Has to give a little for the dollars that we get
[02:42.10] Has to give a little
[02:43.84] They say it's for the best
[02:47.10] Somebody shouted
[02:48.85] Maybe
[02:50.59] But they kept on living from hand to mouth
[02:54.60] Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
[03:00.60] So she ran to the arms of America
[03:07.60] And she kissed the powers that be
[03:13.10] And someone told me
[03:14.84] (Someone told me)
[03:16.09] That the gods believe in nothing
[03:19.59] So with empty hands I pray
[03:23.09] And tell myself
[03:25.35] One day
[03:26.09] They just might see me
