Luyện nghe bài hát Patches

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

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

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

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

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

Now, years have passed, everybody's
been living in a brand new home
Lord knows it a lot of sweat and tears
And my daddy's voice helped us through the years

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

had been sick for a long time, flat on his back
Every evening we'd 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 mama how she looked
When all of a 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 later she came out with tears in her
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
Daddy was a poor man but all of my life he'd been a proud man
I down on one knee beside the bed
put his hand on my shoulder
He said, "Patches, Patches boy, the hammer of done beat
Your old down to the ground and I ain't got nobody
To turn to care of mama and the young ones"

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

Sometimes you find frustrated, lazy
But every I feel like I can't live my life like I want to
My mind goes to that day
When I see those tears in my Daddy's
But of all I remember his words
"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 the family through, my son, it's all left up to you"
