Heartless Land Lyrics - Molly Hatchet

I see it on tv watch it everyday 

Men with no conscience don't care who they slay 

Children killing children for insult or greed 

Don't want what they have don't know what they need 

Shot for a dollar or the color of your car 

You try to find justice you won't get far 

Too many families living on the street 

Too many babies with nothing to eat 

To clear the land they build a wall of fire 

To get their way they use a gun for hire 

Just trying to do the best I can 

To live in this heartless land 

So many people doing without 

They have no power no political clout 

Cutting down the forest, killing off the seas 

Don't look to the future they just do what they please 

Chorus repeat 

We got to stand up find another way 

To solve these problems it gets worse every day 

Hand in hand as hard as it seems 

We can save ourselves and our children's dreams 

Chorus repeat 

I'm trying to live we got to learn to forgive 

I'm doing my best - don't you know - to live in this heartless land
