Lyrics
Hungry people, angry people
Mmm, yeah, yeah, yeah, mmm
Hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal rights
Well, hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal
So, put some food upon their table now
Must always be available
Put some food upon their table now
Must always be available
'Cause hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal rights
Well, hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal rights
All day and all night
Working for the stuff of life
Try hard as you might
Someone just won't treat you right
Work done without pay
No fun, some would say
Hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal rights
Well, hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal rights
Dem hungry, dem hungry, dem hungry, yeah
Those who lead supporting hypocrisy, yeah
We're in need, we're in need, yes, indeed, oh now
Can they contemplate that it seems so right we need
Say, hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal rights
Well, hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal rights
We are hungry people
And are angry people
Who need some food upon their table now
Must always be available
Put some food upon their table, Lord
Must always be available, yeah
Hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
Against injustice and for their equal rights
Well, hungry people are angry people
And for food they will fight
