Luyện nghe bài hát Patches

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

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

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

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

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

Now, years have passed, grown
Mama's been living in a new home
Lord knows it took a lot of and tears
And my daddy's voice helped that us 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 for a long time, flat on his back
Every evening after finished our chores and eat our dinner
We'd all go into papa's room to him up a little
And particular day, Dad was in good spirits
Sitting on the of the bed telling mama how good she looked
When all of a sudden had a pain in his chest

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

Daddy had tears in his eyes, I something was wrong
'Cause Daddy was a poor man but all of my he'd been a proud man
I down on one knee beside the bed
put his hand on my shoulder
He said, "Patches, boy, the hammer of life done beat
Your old papa down to the ground and I got nobody
To turn to take care of mama and the ones"

"So, what I want you to do is 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 know now
That trying to climb mountain
Searching for a top when ain't no top

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

Every time I feel like 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, all left up to you"
