Milk and Honey

Sweet William rose one Monday morning

And he dressed himself in blue

He wrote, Mother, Father, your son is leaving

But you know, he still loves you

But I'm hungry

He walked down to the station

With his suitcase in his hand

He bought himself a one-way ticket

Headed for a promised land

Oh, I'm hungry

And when I get there I'll see

A land of milk and honey

There is a city far away

And a house upon a hill

Where a friend of mine does live

And I hope he lives there still

Oh, I'm hungry

And when I get there I'll see

A land of milk and honey

Let the midnight special

Shine its ever-loving light on me

I'm going where the moon is full

And all the food is free

Oh I'm hungry

And when I get there I'll see

A land of milk and honey
