A Picture From Life's Other Side - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]
In the world's mighty gallery of pictures[00:00:04]
There are scenes that are painted from life[00:00:08]
Scenes of youth and of beauty[00:00:13]
Scenes of hardship and strife[00:00:18]
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[00:00:31]
Is a pictures from life's other side[00:00:35]
A picture from life's other side[00:00:40]
Somebody 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[00:00:58]
Is watching and a-waiting alone[00:01:02]
Longing to hear from her loved one so dear[00:01:07]
That's a picture from life's other side[00:01:11]
Now the first scene is one of two brothers[00:01:18]
Their paths them both differently led[00:01:22]
One lived in luxury and riches[00:01:27]
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]
Then with his knife took his own brother's life[00:01:44]
That's a picture from life's other side[00:01:48]
Now the next scene is down by the river[00:01:54]
Of a heart broken mother and babe[00:01:59]
In the harbor light glare see them shiver[00:02:03]
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 there's no one to weep[00:02:20]
That's a picture from life's other side[00:02:25]
That's 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]
Watching and a-waiting alone[00:02:51]
Longing to hear from her loved one so dear[00:02:56]
That's a picture from life's other side[00:03:00]
