Lyrics

I was wandering downtown with a three-beer buzz
Half so California-style, highway fuzz
Dark around the corner from the back-door games
Bouncer let me in, aw he's the one to blame
You say "hi"
I say "hi"
How the mighty have fallen down
How the hungry hang around
Baby needs a birthday present, something nice
Gambling with my grocery money, doubled twice
Thumb through Jeremiah at half past noon
Sunday coming early in our hotel room
You say "why?"
I say "why?"
How the mighty have fallen down
How the hungry hang around
Read about the judgement of wicked men
Asking you through teardrops if I'm one of them
Memphis in the morning when the dream cloud bursts
Desert man as friendly as an Indian's curse
Cross a bridge in Pecos, up that ancient ledge
Sand between our teeth, standing on the edge
You say "fly"
I say "fly"
How the mighty have fallen down
How the hungry
How the hungry
How the hungry hang around
