TFT (Belated): Paul Revere and The Raiders

Link: [Paul Revere and The Raiders]

Not every song that will be featured in this TWO FOR TUESDAY (TFT) series will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair while others will be quite obviously fervent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father in one way or another, and I hope that you will want to hear and fully accept the message, if you have been allowed and enabled to.

Indian Reservation

Paul Revere and The Raiders

They took the whole Cherokee Nation

Put us on this reservation

Took away our ways of life

The tomahawk

And the bow and knife

Took away our native tongue

And taught their English to our young

And all the beads we made by hand

Are nowadays made in Japan

Cherokee people

Cherokee tribe

So proud to live

So proud to die

They took the whole Indian nation

Locked us on this reservation

Though I wear a shirt and tie

I’m still a red man deep inside

Cherokee people

Cherokee tribe

So proud to live

So proud to die

But maybe someday when they learn

The Cherokee Nation will return

Will return

Will return

Will return

Will return

Hungry

Paul Revere and The Raiders

Girl you got this need to know

What I’m all about

There was something that you dig

You can’t figure out

Well now you want to know

What moves my soul

And what dips inside of my brain

Well I got this need

I just can’t control

And it’s driving me insane

I can’t take it

Because I’m hungry for those good things baby

Hungry through and through

I’m hungry for that sweet life baby

With a real fine girl like you

I can almost taste it baby

And it’s sweet as wine

A custom-tailored world

That I’ve gotta own

With a penthouse in the sky

And we’ll both get stoned

Girl I’m gonna have it all someday

If you’ll just hang on to my hand

If I break some rules along the way

Girl you

You gotta understand

It’s my way of getting’ what I want now

Because I’m hungry

Yes I’m hungry for those good things baby

Hungry through and through

Well I’m hungry for that sweet life baby

With a real fine girl like you

I can almost taste it now

Oh it’s sweet as wine

Well I ain’t gonna waste it now

When it’s finally mine

Gonna live each minute

Bill the often days

‘Til I’ve had my fill

Ah girl I’ll be rollin’ in it

Yes

Yes you know I will

Yes I will

Wow

‘Cause I’m hungry for those good things baby

Hungry through and through

I’m hungry for that sweet life baby

With a real fine girl like you

I just can’t take it now

You gotta hold my hand

You can help me make it now

I’ll be a big big man

Oh girl ‘cause I’m hungry for those good things baby

Hungry through and through

I’m hungry for that sweet life baby

With a real fine girl like you

I’m so hungry now

It gotta have a good life

I’m hungry through and through

I want the world now

Hungry for that sweet life baby

With a real find girl like you
