There’s No Food In This House

Merle Kilgore

[Verse 1:]
Sister says she's hungry
Brother says he's hungry too
If daddy don't get a job real soon
I don't know what we're gonna do

[Chorus:]
Cause there's no food in this house
There's no food in this house

[Verse 2:]
My daddy's looking mighty worried
Since they cut off the credit at the store
I used to ask mom what's for supper
Now I don't ask anymore

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
Daddy's been off from work now two months and a day
Mama she don't say nothing
But last night I heard her pray
Oh Lord please do something something mighty fast
Me and these babies are hungry
I don't know how long we can last

[Chorus]

[Verse 4:]
The people from the church came by last night
And brought a big basket of food
I guess mama's prayers were answered
It's strange how the Lord does move

[Chorus:]
Cause we got food in this house
Now we got food in this house

[Outro:]
Now when we say the blessings
We thank him for the food in this house[x4]
