Hungry Eyes-Merle Haggard[00:00:01]
A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labour camp[00:00:10]
Stand out in this memory I revived;[00:00:19]
Cause my daddy raised a family there with two hard working hands[00:00:28]
And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes [00:00:38]
He dreamed of something better and my mama's faith was strong[00:00:48]
And us kids were just to young to realize[00:00:57]
That another class of people put us somewhere just below;[00:01:07]
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes [00:01:16]
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted[00:01:25]
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try [00:01:35]
She only wanted things she really needed;[00:01:45]
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes [00:01:54]
I remember daddy praying for a better way of life[00:02:04]
But I don't recall a change of any size;[00:02:14]
Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show[00:02:23]
And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes [00:02:32]
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted[00:02:41]
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try [00:02:52]
She only wanted things she really needed;[00:03:01]
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes [00:03:11]
Oh I still recall my mama's hungry eyes[00:03:19]
