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 to tease me about it
But deep down inside dad was
'Cause he done the best he do

My papa was a old man
I can see him a shovel in his hand
daddy never had
But he did wonders when the got bad
The little money from the we raised
paid the bills we made

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

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

Two days later 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 was depending on me

Now, years have passed, grown
Mama's been living in a new home
Lord knows it took a lot of sweat and
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
all go into papa's room to cheer him up a little
And this particular day, Dad was in spirits
Sitting on the side of the bed telling how good she looked
When all of a sudden had a pain 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 she came out with tears in her eyes
She out to me
"Patches, patches get in boy you're Daddy want to see you"
I went running to papa's room papa lay there

Daddy had tears in his eyes, I something was wrong
'Cause was a poor man but all of my life he'd been 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 done beat
old papa down to the ground and I ain't 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 gonna do your to help your mama
As as you can", I said, "Papa I'm gonna do my best"
But did I know then like I know right now
That trying to climb mountain
Searching for a top when ain't no top

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

Every 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 through, my son, it's all left up to you"
