Hungry Eyes - Melba Montgomery

Hungry Eyes - Melba Montgomery
 
A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp
Stand out in this mem'ry I revive 
Cause my daddy raised a family there with two hard working hands
And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes

He dreamed of something better and my mama's faith was strong 
But us kids were just too young to realize 
That another cla*s of people put us somewhere just below 
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try
She only wanted things she really needed
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes

I remember daddy praying for a better way of life
But I don't recall a change of any size
Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show 
And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes

Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
Yes I still recall my mama's hungry eyes

답글 달려고 멀리 뛰어 내려왔더니 숨이 차네요 ㅎㅎㅎ
언제 다녀가셨데요 달님... 늦어서 죄송합니다
카페 활동하면서 처음 듣는 노래 하나씩 알고가는 재미가 쏠쏠하죠?
고맙습니다 달님

저 역시 처음 듣게되는 노래 인데 노래가 좋습니다.
애수가 섞인듯한 멜로디가 맘에 드네요 ^^
감사하게 듣고 갑니다. *^^
