The Son Of Hickory Holler's Tramp (24-Bit Digitally Remastered) - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)[00:00:00]
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 [00:00:22]
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 took up and ran away[00:00:34]
Momma cry the tear[00:00:40]
And she promised fourteen children[00:00:42]
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[00:00:56]
To understand the things they said[00:00:58]
The tings make matter cared about[00:01:03]
Was Momma's chicken dumplings[00:01:05]
And a goodnight kiss[00:01:08]
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[00:01:24]
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[00:01:40]
Came upon our family[00:01:43]
Not one neighbour volunteered[00:01:45]
To give a helping hand[00:01:48]
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[00:02:05]
Each and every one is[00:02:08]
More than grateful for their birth[00:02:10]
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 [00:02:21]
Oh the path was deep and wide[00:02:25]
From footsteps leading to our cabin[00:02:27]
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]
