Feed the children, feed them all!
Feed the children, let no war
Prevent the child from being fed
Jesus said, "Feed the children!"
The market rises, the market falls
The market races, the market stalls
The price is hot, now the price is cold
The grain is sold
It changes hands, now it's sold again
It's in the hands of the middle men
The smiles are warm and their eyes are cold
They pay in gold
The mothers weep and the children cry
But people sleep and the children die
How many more must die tonight
Till the price is right?
Feed the children, feed them all!
Feed the children, let no war
Prevent the child from being fed
Jesus said, "Feed the children!"
Feed the children, feed them all!
Feed the children, let no war
Prevent the child from being fed
Jesus said, "Feed the children!"
Jesus said, "Feed the children!"
Feed the Children was written by Tom Paxton.
