The Face of the Nation

The Face of the Nation Lyrics
The Face of the Nation by Mellencamp John Cougar
Sometimes it breaks my heart
Seein' old people goin' downtown
Stumblin' their way through the dark
And the little babies cry
For their mothers' warmth
Sometimes I feel so helpless
I don't know where to start
CHORUS
And the face of the nation
Keeps changin' and changin'
The face of the nation
I don't recognize it no more
The face of the nation
The face of the nation
So many lonely people
Damn those broken dreams
Oh yes it could be better
You can say that about anything
Some got it worse than me
Some got it worse than you
You see the people starvin' underneath the tree
And you wonder what happened to the golden rule
CHORUS
You know babe I'm gonna keep on tryin'
To put things right
If only for me and you
Cause the devil sleeps tonight
CHORUS
