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
used to tease me about it
But deep down dad was hurtin'
'Cause he done the he could do

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

Oh, put him down to the ground
When he to get up, life would kick him back down
On the day called me to his dying 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, I had to work 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
been living in a brand new home
Lord knows it a lot of sweat and tears
And my voice helped that us through 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 sick for a long time, 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 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 all of us out of the room into the hallway
About ten minutes later she came out with tears in her
She out to me
"Patches, patches get in here boy 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
'Cause Daddy was a poor man but all of my he'd been a proud man
I knelt down on one knee the bed
Papa put his on my shoulder
He said, "Patches, Patches boy, the hammer of life done
old papa down to the ground and I ain't got nobody
To turn to take care of and the young ones"

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

Sometimes you find frustrated, lazy
But every time I feel like I can't live my life like I to
My mind goes back to day
When I see those in my Daddy's eyes
But most of all I remember his
"Patches, I'm on you boy"

Every time I feel like giving up I 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
tried 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"
