Mama's Hungry Eyes (2007 Remastered LP Version) - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)[00:00:00]
A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp[00:00:09]
Stand out in this memory I revived[00:00:18]
'Cause my daddy raised a family there with two hard working hands[00:00:26]
And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes[00:00:35]
He dreamed of something better and my mama's faith was strong[00:00:43]
And us kids were just too young to realize[00:00:52]
That another class of people put us somewhere just below[00:01:01]
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes[00:01:10]
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted[00:01:18]
But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try[00:01:27]
She only wanted things she really needed[00:01:36]
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes[00:01:44]
I remember daddy praying for a better way of life[00:02:10]
But I don't recall a change of any size[00:02:19]
Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show[00:02:27]
And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes[00:02:37]
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted[00:02:45]
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try[00:02:54]
She only wanted things she really needed[00:03:03]
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes[00:03:11]
Yes I still recall my mama's hungry eyes[00:03:19]
