Intro : (2x) Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack I went out for a ride and I never went back Like a river that don't know where it's flowing I took a wrong turn and I just kept going Everybody's got a hungry heart Everybody's got a hungry heart Lay down your money and you play your part Everybody's got a hungry heart I met her in a Kingstown bar We fell in love I knew it had to end We took what we had and we ripped it apart Now here I am down in Kingstown again Everybody's got a hungry heart Everybody's got a hungry heart Lay down your money and you play your part Everybody's got a hungry heart Instrumental : Everybody needs a place to rest Everybody wants to have a home Don't make no difference what no-bo-dy says Ain't nobody like to be alone Eveybody's got a hungry heart Everybody's got a hungry heart Lay down your money and you play your part Everybody's got a hungry heart Everybody's got a hungry heart Everybody's got a hungry heart Lay down your money and you play your part Everybody's got a hungry heart (Reprendre et terminer en fade out)

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un homme qui, malgré sa vie familiale à Baltimore, ressent un sentiment d'errance et de nostalgie. Il se souvient d'une belle rencontre dans un bar à Kingstown, mais la relation qu'il a vécue s'est terminée, le laissant avec un sentiment de vide. L'artiste souligne que chacun a des désirs insatisfaits et un besoin d'affection, illustrant que la quête d'un foyer ou d'un endroit où l'on se sent bien est universelle. Il insiste sur l'idée que personne ne veut vraiment être seul, et que, d'une manière ou d'une autre, tout le monde cherche à combler ce vide intérieur.
