[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]
