A Picture From Life's Other Side (Remaster) - Cisco Houston/The Almanac Singers/Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]
In the world's mighty gallery of pictures[00:00:04]
There're scenes that are painted from life [00:00:08]
Scenes of youth and of beauty [00:00:13]
Scenes of hardship and strife [00:00:17]
Scenes of wealth and of plenty [00:00:22]
Old age and the blushing young bride [00:00:26]
Hang on the wall but the saddest of all[00:00:30]
Is a picture from life's other side [00:00:35]
A picture from life's other side[00:00:40]
Someone has fell by the way[00:00:44]
And a life has gone out with the tide[00:00:48]
That might have been happy someday[00:00:53]
Some poor mother at home[00:00:57]
Is watching and a-waiting alone[00:01:02]
Longing to hear from her loved one so dear[00:01:06]
That's a picture from life's other side [00:01:11]
Now the first scene is one of two brothers[00:01:17]
Their paths them both differently led[00:01:22]
One lived in luxury and riches[00:01:26]
And the other one begged for his bread[00:01:31]
One night they met on the highway[00:01:35]
"Your money or life sir" one cried[00:01:40]
And then with his knife took his own brother's life[00:01:44]
That's a picture from life's other side [00:01:49]
Now the last scene is down by the river[00:01:54]
Of a heart-broken mother and babe[00:01:58]
In the harbor light glare see them shiver[00:02:02]
Outcasts that no one will save[00:02:07]
Once she was a true woman[00:02:12]
Somebody's darlin' and pride[00:02:16]
God help her she leaps for there's no one to weep[00:02:20]
That's a picture from life's other side [00:02:24]
A picture from life's other side[00:02:29]
Somebody has fell by the way[00:02:33]
And a life has gone out with the tide[00:02:38]
That might have been happy someday[00:02:42]
Some poor mother at home[00:02:47]
Is watching and a-waiting alone[00:02:51]
Longing to hear from her loved one so dear[00:02:55]
That's a picture from life's other side[00:02:59]
