Luyện nghe bài hát Patches

I was and raised down in Alabama
On a farm way up in the woods
Oh, I was so ragged, used call me Patches
used to tease me about it
But down inside dad was hurtin'
'Cause he done the best he do

My was a great old man
I can see him with a shovel in his
Education daddy had
But he did wonders when the got bad
The money from the crops we raised
paid the bills we made

Oh, life put him down to the
When he tried to get up, life would kick him down
On the day papa called me to his bed
his hands on my shoulders and in tears he said

"Patches, I'm on you son
To pull the through, my son, it's all left up to you"

Two days later passed away
And I became a man day
So, everyday I had to work the
'Cause that's the only way we got our
See, I was the of the family
And everybody was on me

Now, years passed, everybody's grown
Mama's been living in a brand new
Lord knows it took a lot of and tears
And my daddy's helped that us through the years

He said, "Patches, I'm on you son
To pull the family through, my son, all left up to you"

Daddy had sick for a long time, flat on his back
evening after we'd finished our chores and eat our dinner
We'd all go into papa's room to cheer him up a
And particular day, Dad was in good spirits
on the side of the bed telling mama how good she looked
When all of a sudden papa had a in his chest

I was too young to understand, talking about a heart attack
Mama rushed all of us out of the into the hallway
About ten later she came out with tears in her eyes
She out to me
"Patches, patches get in here boy you're Daddy to see you"
I running to papa's room there papa lay there

Daddy had tears in his eyes, I knew something was
Daddy was a poor man but all of my life he'd been a proud man
I knelt on one knee beside the bed
put his hand on my shoulder
He said, "Patches, Patches boy, the of life done beat
Your old papa down to the and I ain't got nobody
To turn to care of mama and the young ones"

"So, what I you to do is promise me son
Is that you're gonna do your best to help mama
As as you can", I said, "Papa I'm gonna do my best"
But little did I know like I know right now
That to climb life's mountain
Searching for a top when there no top

Sometimes you yourself frustrated, lazy
But every time I feel I can't live my life like I want to
My mind goes back to day
When I see those in my Daddy's eyes
But most of all I his words
"Patches, I'm on you boy"

time I feel like giving up I hear his voice
"Patches, Patches, Patches, Patches"

"I'm on you son
I tried to do my best, up you to do the rest"

"Patches, I'm on you son
I've to do my best, it's up you to do the rest"

"Patches, I'm on you son
To pull the family through, my son, it's all up to you"
