Luyện nghe bài hát Patches

I was born and down in Alabama
On a farm way back up in the
Oh, I was so ragged, folks call me Patches
Papa used to tease me it
But deep down inside dad was
he done the best he could do

My papa was a old man
I can see him with a shovel in his
Education daddy had
But he did wonders the times got bad
The little money from the we raised
Barely the bills we made

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

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

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

Now, years have passed, grown
Mama's been living in a brand new
Lord knows it a lot of sweat 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 been sick for a long time, flat on his
Every evening after we'd finished our and eat our dinner
We'd all go into room to cheer him up a little
And this day, Dad was in good spirits
Sitting on the side of the bed telling 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 here
rushed all of us out of the room into the hallway
About ten minutes later she out with tears in her eyes
She out to me
"Patches, patches get in here boy you're Daddy to see you"
I went running to papa's room papa lay there

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

"So, what I you to do is promise me son
Is that you're do your best to help your mama
As as you can", I said, "Papa I'm gonna do my best"
But little did I know then like I right now
That trying to climb mountain
Searching for a top when ain't no top

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

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

"I'm on you son
I to do my best, it's 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, all left up to you"
