Luyện nghe bài hát Patches

I was born and raised 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 inside dad was hurtin'
'Cause he done the he could do

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

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

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

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

Now, years have passed, everybody's
Mama's been living in a new home
knows it took 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"

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 into papa's room to him up a little
And this particular day, Dad was in good
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 running to papa's room there lay there

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

"So, I want you to do is promise me son
Is that you're gonna do best to help 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 there ain't no top

Sometimes you find yourself frustrated,
But every time I feel like I live my life like I want to
My mind back to that day
When I see those tears in my Daddy's
But most of all I his words
"Patches, I'm on you boy"

time 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 tried to do my best, 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"
