"Hunger" lyrics - EDIE BRICKELL

EDIE BRICKELL
"Hunger"

There's a stray cat callin', howlin' in the wind
It's gonna be cold tonight
Warm inside I hear a voice shoutin' sayin'
Baby won't you treat me right

Everybody's on the hunt
Lookin' for a little somethin'
Some way to pass the time
No matter what you call it deep inside
These troubles are the same as mine

Hunger, hunger, hunger can't satisfy the hunger in my soul
Hunger, hunger, hunger can't satisfy the hunger in my soul

It keeps me searchin'
For a spirit in the sky
It keeps me searchin'
Till I can look it in the eye
And that's why I can't stay here very long
It keeps driving me on

Hunger, hunger, hunger can't satisfy the hunger in my soul
Hunger, hunger, hunger can't satisfy the hunger in my soul

And I've tasted the fruit growing sweet on the vine
And I just can't shake it from my mind
And it stays with me for days and nights
Day and night
For the rest of my life

Hunger, hunger, hunger can't satisfy the hunger in my soul
Hunger, hunger, hunger can't satisfy the hunger in my soul
Can't satisfy the hunger in my soul
Can't satisfy the hunger in my soul
