Sister says she's hungry brother says he's hungry too If daddy don't get a job real soon I don't know what we're gonna do Cause there's no food in this house there's no food in this house My daddy's looking mighty worried since they cut off the pretty at the store I used to ask mom what's for supper now I don't ask anymore Cause there's no food in this house there's no food in this house Daddy's been off from work now two months and a day Mama she don't say nothing but last night I heard her pray Oh Lord please do something something mighty fast Too many babies are hungry I don't know how long we can last Cause there's no food in this house there's no food in this house The people from the church came by last night and brought a big basket of food I guess mama's prayers were answered it's strange how the Lord does move Cause we got food in this house now we got food in this house Now when we say the blessings we thank him for the food in this house We thank him for the food in this house we thank him for the food in this house We thank him for the food in this house
