Some Hae Meat

Some hae meat and cannae eat

Some would eat that want it

But we hae meat and we can eat

So let the lord be thankit

From my armchair window on this world

Before my eyes appearing

Food for breakfast, dinner, tea

And in between, meals feeding

Some hae meat and cannae eat

Some would eat that want it

But we hae meat and we can eat

So let the lord be thankit

From my armchair window on this world

I see butter mountains rising

Fish thrown back into the sea

And leaders compromising

Some hae meat and cannae eat

Some would eat that want it

But we hae meat and we can eat

So let the lord be thankit

And then I see one bowl of rice

A child's eyes staring at me

With feeble bones, life never owned

Reaching out to touch me

Some hae meat and cannae eat

Some would eat that want it

But we hae meat and we can eat

So let the lord be thankit

Just down the road, a million miles

Our children they are crying

Too weak to eat, they've got nae meat

They spend their living dying

Some hae meat and cannae eat

Some would eat that want it

But we hae meat and we can eat

So let the lord be thankit

Some hae meat and cannae eat

Some would eat that want it

But we hae meat and we can eat

So let the lord be thankit
