Текст песни Mama's Hungry Eyes - Live - Dale Watson

A canvas covered cabin
And a crowded labor camp
Stand in this memory and everybody
My daddy raised a family there
With two hard working hands
And he tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes

I remembered that he failed
And my mama's faith was strong
But her kids is too young to realize
There was another class of people
That put us somewhere just below
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

Mama never had the luxury she wanted
But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try
She only wanted things she really needed
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

I remembered daddy praying for a better way of life
But I don't recall a change of any size
Just a little loss of courage as her age began to show
No more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

Mama never had the luxury she wanted
But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try
She only wanted things she really needed
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

You know he tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes

Pleasure, thank you all
Thanks a lot, thanks for asking that Merle Haggard song
Yeah, I'd like to do I- I you know you always think about
Bakersfield guys or Merle Haggard and Buck Owens
But there's another guy from Bakersfield
Wynn Stewart, yes sir
Where you at? Who said that?
There you go, way back
Oh of course, he's great man

Ralph Mooney always said, even though he played steel guitar for Waylon, that's right there you go
Of course, Marie you knew that, alright
And so many other people, and Buck Owens
But he always said he was Wynn Stewart steel guitarist
You know so uh that's quite a, that's quite a thing to say
And here's a song by Wynn Stewart
Written by Wynn Stewart, called "Another Day, Another Dollar"
One, two...
