Got my belly for a pillow
And the rain to wash her clothes
Cement mattress, walls of cardboard
We ain't helpless, we're homeless and it shows
Those concerned talk it up on cable
They're so worried, they're so ashamed, well it's not right
Mister big shot, no action, no justice
What's your number, can I call you tonight?
Tears don't put food in my baby's mouth
Or corduroy on her skinny legs
Tears freeze like us when the heat goes south
Tears don't give when my baby begs
Yeah your tears ain't enough
Yeah your tears ain't enough
When the going gets rough
Tears ain't enough
There's a moral plague and a greedy Congress
They won't stop the drugs or the flying lead
I wake up a little sadder each morning
'Cause one more innocent child's dead
Hey hey (hey hey), howdy ho (howdy ho)
There's some ready man to go go go
To another planet for another life
Dear God, how will I feed my kids tonight?
Yeah your tears ain't enough
Yeah your tears ain't enough
When the going gets rough
Tears ain't enough
Yeah when the going gets rough
Tears ain't enough
Yeah when the going gets rough
Tears ain't enough
