Luyện nghe bài hát Patches of Blue

i was born and raised down in alabama on a farm way back up in the

i was so ragged folks used to call me patches papa used to tease me about it cours deep down he was hurt cause he done all he could

My was a great old man
i can see him with a in his hand
see he never had but
he did wonders the times got bad
the little money the crops he raised
barley paid the we made

oh had kicked him down to the ground
he tried to get up life would kick him back down

one day papa called me to his bed
put his hands on my shoulders and he said he
he said Patches im on you son
to the family through
my son its all up to you

two days later papa pased and i became a man that day
so i told mama i was quit school an she said that was daddys strictest rule

so mornin befor i went to school
i fed the chickens and i choped too

sometimes i felt like i couldent go on i wanted to leave run away from home
but i would remember what my saidwith tears in his eyes on his dying bed

he Patches im depending on you son
ive tried to do my
its up to you to do the

then one day a strong rain an washed all the crops away
an at the age of i felt like i was carring the weight of the whole world around on my shoulders
and you know mama knew what i was going

everyday we had to work the fields thats the only way we got our meals
you see i was the oldest in the an every body else depended on me
every night i heard my moma prey lord give him strength to another day

the years have passed
the are all gone
the angels took to a brand knew home
lord knows people ive some tears
my daddys voice kept pounding in my

saying patches im on you son ive tried to do my best
its up to you to do the

i can hear papa say patches im depending on you son to pull the through my son its all left up to you
patches im depending on you son to pull the family
