《Hungry Eyes》歌词

[00:00:00] It's All in the Movies - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)

[00:00:10] A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labour camp

[00:00:19] Stand out in this memory I revived;

[00:00:28] Cause my daddy raised a family there with two hard working hands

[00:00:38] And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes

[00:00:48] He dreamed of something better and my mama's faith was strong

[00:00:57] And us kids were just to young to realize

[00:01:07] That another class of people put us somewhere just below;

[00:01:16] One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

[00:01:25] Mama never had the luxuries she wanted

[00:01:35] But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try

[00:01:45] She only wanted things she really needed;

[00:01:54] One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

[00:02:04] I remember daddy praying for a better way of life

[00:02:14] But I don't recall a change of any size;

[00:02:23] Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show

[00:02:32] And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes

[00:02:41] Mama never had the luxuries she wanted

[00:02:52] But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try

[00:03:01] She only wanted things she really needed;

[00:03:11] One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

[00:03:19] Oh I still recall my mama's hungry eyes
