《Family Album》歌词

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

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

[00:00:10] Always be a picnic

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

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

[00:00:32] Uncle Merle would sing

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:51] Take some pictures

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:04:53] She watched me blossom

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

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

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

[00:05:13] For the hidden meanings

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

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

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

[00:05:30] They wrote about me

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:06:09] Done a wrong thing

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

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

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

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

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