Hungry Years Lyrics - Singles - Saxon

They came down from the north 

To the plough they were forged 

In the footsteps of a man who'd been before 

Brought up from the streets 

In the ranks of unemployed 

They had everything to gain but not to loose 

They searched the hungry years () 

For the triumph, for the tears 

It's a chance they had to take 

They were waiting for a break 

They searched the hungry years 

For the triumph, for the tears 

Some make it to the stars 

Playing rock and roll guitars 

Playing rock and roll guitars

They read under the lights () 

To the jews and to the whites 

The systems gonna change and understand them 

The business world is deep 

For a percentage of the heat 

There was magic in the eyes 

They couldn't see the lies 

They watched it slowly die 

(Repeat) 

Photos 

Some take the fame 

And some take the blame 

Maybe they will and maybe they won't 

Tonight... 

(Repeat)
