The Face Of The Nation

(الألبوم: Scarecrow - 1985)

As I run through this life
Sometimes it breaks my heart
Seeing old people going downtown
Stumbling their way through the dark
And the little babies cry
For their mothers' warmth
Sometimes I feel so helpless
I don't know where to start

[Chorus:]
And the face of the nation
Keeps changing and changing
The face of th enation
I don't recognize it no more
The face of the neation
The face of the nation

So many lonely people
Damn those broken dreams
Oh yes it could be better
You can say that about anything
Some got it worse than me
Some got it worse than you
You see the people starving underneath the tree
And you wonder what happened to the golden rule

[Chorus]

You know babe I'm gonna keep on trying
To put things right
If only for me and you
Cause the devil sleeps tonight

[Chorus]
