HUNGRY HEART^©

The Ties That Bind version

Yeah!

Come on!
Whoa!

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 hu-hu-hungry heart

Whoa

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 hu-hu-hungry heart

La la la la la la
Ohhh yeah
La la la la la la

Everybody needs a place to rest
Everybody wants to have a home
Don't make no difference what nobody says
Ain't nobody like to be alone
Hey yeah hey

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 hu-hu-hungry heart
(Everybody's got a hungry heart)
Oh yeah
(Everybody's got a) hu-hu-hungry heart
(Lay down your money and you play your part)
Oh yeah
(Everybody's got a hungry heart)
Oh yeaah
La la la la la la
Ohhh yeaaah
La la la la la la
Oh yeaaah
Hmmm
Oooh

The above lyrics refer to the same take as the official track, but has only some minor mix variations. It was recorded sometime prior to 04 Oct 1979 at the Power Station, New York City, NY. It is said that this is the mix that was to be included on The Ties That Bind LP, an album that was supposed to be released in 1979. It is now available on The Ties That Bind bootleg.

Check also the other studio versions: album's version, original speed version, instrumental take, 21 Jun 1979 alternate mix #1, 21 Jun 1979 alternate mix #2, and different harmonies version.

The live versions: Berlin 95 version, Live 1975-85 version, 19 Nov 1984, 10 Jul 1992, 28 Oct 1999, and 09 Aug 2003.

I'm not sure, but this seems be the same mix as the different harmonies version.
