Feed the Babies Lyrics by Gary Clark Jr.

This Land

2019

[Intro]
Ah
Listen, listen, listen, listen
Listen
[Verse 1]
Well, it's hard out there for a man
Yeah, it's cold out on the streets
But the world is my buffet, child
And I'm just looking to eat
I ain't got no ill intention
I ain't tryin' to compete
But the world is my buffet, child
And I'm just looking to eat
And feed the babies, oh
Gotta feed the babies now, yeah
[Chorus]
So come on, brothers and sisters
It's the same path you walk
Come on, mothers and fathers
Teach the babies to talk
Come on, brothers and sisters
It starts with a song
Come on, mothers and fathers
Stand up for your cause
And teach the babies to love
Gotta teach the babies to love
[Verse 2]
It's hard out there for a lady
Sometimes, the grass is way too deep
Now women become mothers
So our babies get to eat
What do you call the struggle
When the cycle is complete?
What do you call the struggle
When we're all just looking to eat?
[Chorus]
So come on, brothers and sisters
It's the same path you walk
Come on, mothers and fathers
Teach the babies to talk
Come on, brothers and sisters
It starts with a song
Come on, mothers and fathers
Stand up for your cause
And teach the babies to love, yeah
Oh, gotta teach the babies to love
[Bridge]
Oh, listen now
(Brother, sister, mother, father)
(Brother, sister, mother, father)
[Chorus]
So come on, brothers and sisters
It's the same path you walk
Come on, mothers and fathers
Teach the babies to talk
Come on, brothers and sisters
It starts with a song
Come on, mothers and fathers
Stand up for your cause
And teach the babies to love, yeah
Gotta teach the babies to love, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, listen now (Brother)
Oh, listen now (Sister)
Oh, listen now (Mother)
Oh, listen now (Father)
[Outro]
Brother, sister, mother, father
Brother, sister, mother, father
Brother, sister, mother, father
Brother, sister, mother, father
