Hungry Eyes - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)/The Strangers[00:00:00]

Written by：Merle Haggard[00:00:01]

A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labour camp[00:00:09]

Stand out in this memory I revived[00:00:18]

Cause my daddy raised a family there[00:00:27]

With two hard working hands[00:00:32]

And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes[00:00:37]

He dreamed of something better[00:00:46]

And my mama's faith was strong[00:00:50]

And us kids were just to young to realize[00:00:55]

That another class of people put us somewhere just below[00:01:04]

One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes[00:01:13]

Mama never had the luxuries she wanted[00:01:22]

But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try[00:01:32]

She only wanted things she really needed[00:01:41]

One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes[00:01:50]

I remember daddy praying for a better way of life[00:01:59]

But I don't recall a change of any size[00:02:08]

Just a little loss of courage[00:02:17]

As their age began to show[00:02:22]

And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes[00:02:26]

Mama never had the luxuries she wanted[00:02:35]

But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try[00:02:45]

She only wanted things she really needed[00:02:54]

One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes[00:03:03]

Oh I still recall my mama's hungry eyes[00:03:12]
