《Mamma’s Hungry Eyes》歌词

[00:00:00] Mamma's Hungry Eyes - George Jones (乔治·琼斯)

[00:00:02] A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp

[00:00:14] Stands out in this memory I revile

[00:00:22] 'Cause my daddy raised a family there with two hard working hand

[00:00:31] And tried to feed my mamas hungry eyes

[00:00:39] He dreamed of something better and my mama's faith was stong

[00:00:49] And us kids were just to young to realize

[00:00:57] That another class of people put us somewhere just below

[00:01:06] One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

[00:01:15] Mama never had the luxury she wanted

[00:01:24] But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try

[00:01:33] She only wanted things she really needed

[00:01:42] One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

[00:01:50] I remember daddy's praying for a better way of life

[00:02:01] But I don't recall a change of any size

[00:02:08] Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show

[00:02:18] And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes

[00:02:24] Mama never had the luxury she wanted

[00:02:35] But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try

[00:02:44] She only wanted things she really needed

[00:02:53] One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
