The Son Of Hickory Holler's Tramp (2001 Remaster) (2001 Digital Remaster) - Merle Haggard[00:00:00]

（2001 Digital Remaster） - Merle Haggard[00:00:02]

Oh the path was deep and wide[00:00:06]

From footsteps leading to our cabin[00:00:08]

Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp[00:00:12]

And late at night a hand would knock[00:00:17]

And there would stand a stranger[00:00:20]

Yes I'm the son of Hickory Holler's tramp [00:00:23]

Yeah the corn was dry the weeds were high[00:00:28]

When daddy took to drinking[00:00:31]

Him and Lucy Walker they up and ran away[00:00:34]

Momma cry the tear[00:00:41]

And she promised fourteen children[00:00:43]

I swear you'll never see a hungry day [00:00:46]

When Momma sacrificed her pride[00:00:51]

The neighbours started talking[00:00:54]

But I was much too young[00:00:57]

To understand the things they said[00:00:59]

The tings make matter cared about[00:01:03]

Was Momma's chicken dumplings[00:01:06]

And a goodnight kiss[00:01:09]

Before we went to bed [00:01:10]

Oh the path was deep and wide[00:01:14]

From footsteps leading to our cabin[00:01:16]

Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp[00:01:19]

And late at night a hand would knock[00:01:25]

And there would stand a stranger[00:01:27]

Yes I'm the son of Hickory Holler's tramp [00:01:30]

When Daddy left and destitution[00:01:41]

Came upon our family[00:01:43]

Not one neighbour volunteered[00:01:46]

To lend a helping hand[00:01:49]

So let 'em gossip all they want[00:01:52]

She loved us and she raised us[00:01:55]

The proof is standing here[00:01:58]

A full grown man [00:02:00]

Last summer Momma passed away[00:02:03]

And left the ones who loved her[00:02:06]

Each and every one is[00:02:09]

More than grateful for their birth[00:02:11]

And each Sunday she receives[00:02:15]

A bouquet of fourteen roses[00:02:17]

With a card that reads[00:02:20]

The Greatest Mom on Earth [00:02:22]

Oh the path was deep and wide[00:02:26]

From footsteps leading to our cabin[00:02:28]

Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp[00:02:31]

And late at night a hand would knock[00:02:36]

And there would stand a stranger[00:02:39]

Yes I'm the son of Hickory Holler's tramp[00:02:42]

Yes I'm the son of Hickory Holler's tramp[00:02:47]
