Sitting on the front porch with my sweet Marilade
Working out expenses no honest man can pay
One is from the landlord; the bank done sent me two
And as for me, I know down deep what I got to do
Chorus:
Famine or Feast, I'm on my knees
Searchin for the answers to things I can't see
Times of Jubilation waiting for release
Time we all pray to the Lord
Famine or Feast
Things have happened lately; my car is in the shop
Riding on the cross-town; almost at the stop
Staring out the window into the night outside
I have to tell you honest now, I sat right there and cried
Chorus:
Famine or Feast, I'm on my knees
Searchin for the answers to things I can't see
Times of Jubilation waiting for release
Time we all pray to the Lord
Famine or Feast
Break:
You may say, time to pray is every now and then
I tell you twice, Jesus Christ
He no fair-weather friend, he's no fair-weathered friend
My best friend's a doctor, How he has been blessed
Drives a new Mercedes, and always has the best
But thursday nights you'll find us, studying God's word
We both have our reasons for praying to the Lord
Chorus:
Famine or Feast, I'm on my knees
Searchin for the answers to things I can't see
Times of Jubilation waiting for release
Time we all pray to the Lord
Famine or Feast
(2x)
Time we all pray to the Lord
Famine or Feast
