Pictures from Life's Other Side - Hank Williams (汉克·威廉姆斯)[00:00:00]

In the world's mighty gallery of pictures[00:00:05]

Hang the scenes that are painted from life[00:00:09]

There's pictures of love and of passion[00:00:14]

And there's pictures of keys and of strife[00:00:19]

There hung pictures of youth and of beauty[00:00:23]

Of old age and a blushing young bride[00:00:28]

They all hung on the wall but the saddest of all[00:00:33]

Are the pictures from life's other side[00:00:38]

Just a picture from life's other side[00:00:43]

Someone has fell by the way[00:00:48]

A life has gone out with the tide[00:00:53]

That might have been happy some day[00:00:58]

There's a poor old mother at home[00:01:03]

She's watching and waiting alone[00:01:08]

Just longing to hear from a loved one so dear[00:01:13]

Just the picture from life's other side[00:01:18]

The first scene is that of a gambler[00:01:24]

Who had lost all of his money at play[00:01:28]

And he drowses dead mother's ring from his finger[00:01:33]

Which she wore long ago on her wedding day[00:01:38]

It's his last earthly treasure but he stakes it[00:01:43]

Then bows his head that his shame he might hide[00:01:48]

But when they lifted his head they found he was dead[00:01:53]

That's just a picture from life's other side[00:01:58]

Now the last scene is that by the river[00:02:03]

Of a heartbroken mother and baby[00:02:08]

As the harbor lights shine and they shiver[00:02:14]

On an outcast soon no one will save[00:02:19]

And yet she was once a true woman[00:02:24]

She was somebody's darling and pride[00:02:29]

God help her she leaps oh there's no one to weep[00:02:34]

It's just a picture from life's other side[00:02:39]
