[00:00:00] The Son Of Hickory Holler's Tramp - Kenny Rogers (肯尼·罗杰斯)

[00:00:03] Written by：Dallas Frazier

[00:00:06] The corn was dry the weeds were high when daddy took to drinkin'

[00:00:11] Then him and Lucy walker they took up and run away

[00:00:18] Mama cried a tear and then she promised fourteen children

[00:00:24] I swear you'll never see a hungry day

[00:00:29] When mama sacrificed her pride the neighbors started talkin'

[00:00:35] But I was much too young to understand a thing they said

[00:00:42] The things that mattered most of all was mama's chicken dumpling's

[00:00:47] And a goodnight kiss before we went to bed

[00:00:52] Oh the path was deep and wide from footsteps leading to our cabin

[00:00:58] Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp

[00:01:04] And late at night a hand would knock and there would stand a stranger

[00:01:09] Yes I'm the son of hickory holler's tramp

[00:01:17] When daddy left and destitution came upon our family

[00:01:23] Not one neighbor volunteered to give a helpin' hand

[00:01:30] So let 'em gossip all they want she loved us and she raised us

[00:01:35] The proof is standin' here a full grown man

[00:01:40] Last summer mama passed away and left the ones who loved her

[00:01:46] Each and every one was more than grateful for their birth

[00:01:53] Each Sunday she receives a fresh bouquet of fourteen roses

[00:01:58] And a card that says the greatest mom on earth

[00:02:03] Oh the path was deep and wide from footsteps leading to our cabin

[00:02:09] Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp

[00:02:15] And late at night a hand would knock and there would stand a stranger

[00:02:20] Yes I'm the son of hickory holler's tramp

[00:02:25] Oh the path was deep and wide from footsteps leading to our cabin

[00:02:31] Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp

[00:02:36] And late at night a hand would knock and there would stand a stranger

[00:02:42] Yes I'm the son of hickory holler's tramp

[00:02:47] Oh the path was deep and wide from footsteps leading to our cabin

[00:02:53] Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp

[00:02:58] And late at night a hand would knock and there would stand a stranger
