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 used call me
Papa to tease me about it
But deep down inside dad was
he done the best he could do

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

Oh, put him down to the ground
When he tried to get up, life would kick him 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 family through, my son, it's all up to you"

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

Now, have passed, everybody's grown
Mama's been living in a brand new
Lord it took a lot of sweat 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 sick for a long time, flat on his back
Every evening after we'd our chores and eat our dinner
We'd all go papa's room to cheer him up a little
And particular day, Dad was in good spirits
Sitting on the side of the bed telling mama how good she
all of a sudden papa 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 room into the
About ten minutes 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 went to papa's room there papa lay there

Daddy had tears in his eyes, I knew something was
'Cause Daddy was a poor man but all of my life been a proud man
I knelt down on one beside the bed
Papa put his on my shoulder
He said, "Patches, Patches boy, the hammer of life done
Your old papa to the ground and I ain't got nobody
To turn to take 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 your mama
As much as you can", I said, "Papa I'm do my best"
But little did I know then like I know now
trying to climb life's mountain
Searching for a top when ain't no top

Sometimes you yourself frustrated, lazy
But every time I feel like I live my life like I want to
My mind goes to that day
When I see those tears in my Daddy's
But most of all I remember his
"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 to do my best, it's up you to do the rest"

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

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