George Jones - Mama's Hungry Eyes songtekst
Je score:
A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp Stands out in this memory I revile 'Cause my daddy raised a family there with two hard working hand And tried to feed my mamas hungry eyes. He dreamed of something better and my mama's faith was stong And us kids were just to young to realize That another class of people put us somewhere just below One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes. Mama, never had the luxury she wanted But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try She only wanted things she really needed One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes. I remember daddy's praying for a better way of life But I don't recall a change of any size Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes. Mama never had the luxury she wanted But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try She only wanted things she really needed One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes...
