《Mama’s Hungry Eyes(2007 Remastered LP Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Mama's Hungry Eyes (2007 Remastered LP Version) - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)

[00:00:09] A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp

[00:00:18] Stand out in this memory I revived

[00:00:26] 'Cause my daddy raised a family there with two hard working hands

[00:00:35] And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes

[00:00:43] He dreamed of something better and my mama's faith was strong

[00:00:52] And us kids were just too young to realize

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

[00:01:10] One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

[00:01:18] Mama never had the luxuries she wanted

[00:01:27] But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try

[00:01:36] She only wanted things she really needed

[00:01:44] One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

[00:02:10] I remember daddy praying for a better way of life

[00:02:19] But I don't recall a change of any size

[00:02:27] Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show

[00:02:37] And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes

[00:02:45] Mama never had the luxuries she wanted

[00:02:54] But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try

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

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

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