We've watched them leaving seen their ragged flight

Farmilies of the jungle mothers of the night

A boy of ten by the roadside lies

Hears his future in whispers and cries

And clutching a tiny Buddha charm

A baby dies in his mother's arms

Is there only sorrow in Cambodia

Is there no tomorrowin Cambodia

Leaving the graves of your ancestors after a thousand years

Leaving a few belongings after a thousand tears

How come you never left before through bombing famine and flood

Are the rivers useless now spilling over with blood

Is there only sorrow in Cambodia

Is there no tomorrow no tomorrow in Cambodia

I hear there are very few children from ages one to five

It takes more than jungle leaves to keep the young ones alive

I hear some of the rice got through the outside's trying to send to you

There you sit in the ruins of war the doctors are knocking at your door

Is there only sorrow only sorrow in Cambodia

Is there no tomorrow no tomorrow in Cambodia

Still we'll try and feed you try and go to you

People of Kampuchea Kampuchea Cambodia

Call another conference write another song

Deliver another ton of rice and hope it gets where it belongs

And rival teams of bandits are really the only choice

Even if the people had their bellies filled even if the people had a voice

And meanwhile lovers are killed in the crossfire

Children are caught in the barbed wire

Military sinks in the mire

Let me show it to you

Is there only sorrow only sorrow in Cambodia

Is there no tomorrow no tomorrow in Cambodia

Still we'll try and feed you try and feed to you try in Cambodia

People of Kampuchea Kampuchea Kampuchea Cambodia
