Family Album - David Allan Coe[00:00:00]

On Sunday after church there'd[00:00:06]

Always be a picnic[00:00:10]

There'd be kinfolks callin' until dawn[00:00:18]

Me I'd play the guitar and my[00:00:27]

Uncle Merle would sing[00:00:32]

And grandpa he'd play that fiddle all night long[00:00:37]

Now the women folk they would[00:00:47]

Work out in the kitchen[00:00:51]

You could smell that food for[00:00:57]

Miles and miles around Paw[00:00:59]

He was prayin' my brother Jack[00:01:09]

Would bring him down some moonshine[00:01:13]

Just so's that he could wash those viddle down[00:01:18]

As soon as all the kids got[00:01:28]

Tired of playin' horseshoes[00:01:30]

Mama she'd call me over to her side[00:01:37]

You know she'd say I'd like to[00:01:48]

Take some pictures[00:01:51]

You could see her face light up with pride[00:01:58]

And then she'd bring out[00:02:08]

That worn out family album[00:02:09]

It's faded pictures some with corners torn[00:02:18]

She'd laugh and point and tell me funny stories[00:02:27]

And look she'd say why that's[00:02:38]

The day that you were born[00:02:41]

And I'd sit and reminisce each picture with her[00:02:47]

And I'd listen to her laughter and her sighs[00:02:57]

But underneath I knew how much I'd hurt her[00:03:08]

For I'd put teardrops in my mama's eyes[00:03:18]

In my mama's eyes [00:03:25]

I've never done a wrong thing[00:03:29]

I was still a baby in my mama's eyes[00:03:36]

That old family album she'll[00:03:46]

Keep on her night stand[00:03:50]

Right next to the Bible until the day she dies[00:03:56]

Through all those years in prison she stuck by me[00:04:10]

And she came to visit anytime she could[00:04:20]

Well I remember at my trial when[00:04:29]

She testified she loved me[00:04:32]

And she told the judge [00:04:39]

I'd always been so good[00:04:42]

Then later through the fame[00:04:48]

She watched me blossom[00:04:53]

From just a local country singer[00:04:58]

To a great big star[00:05:02]

She listened to all my records[00:05:08]

For the hidden meanings[00:05:13]

And she came to hear me sing[00:05:18]

In all those dim lit bars[00:05:22]

And she read all the things[00:05:28]

They wrote about me[00:05:30]

But she knew deep in her[00:05:37]

Heart that it was lies[00:05:38]

No she don't hide her head in shame[00:05:45]

When someone says my name[00:05:52]

You'll find no teardrops in my mama's eyes[00:05:57]

In my mama's eyes I've never[00:06:04]

Done a wrong thing[00:06:09]

I was still a baby in my mama's eyes[00:06:14]

That old family album she'll[00:06:24]

Keep on her night stand[00:06:28]

Right next to the Bible until the day she dies[00:06:35]

Right next to the Bible until the day she dies[00:06:47]
