Luyện nghe bài hát Patches

I was born and raised down in
On a farm way up in the woods
Oh, I was so ragged, folks call me Patches
used to tease me about it
But down inside 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 when the times got bad
The little money the crops we raised
Barely paid the we made

Oh, put him down to the ground
When he tried to get up, life would kick him back
On the day called me to his dying 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 papa passed away
And I became a man day
So, I had to work the fields
'Cause the only way we got our meals
See, I was the oldest of the
And everybody was on me

Now, years passed, everybody's grown
Mama's living in a brand new home
knows it took 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, it's all up to you"

Daddy had been sick for a long time, on his back
Every after we'd finished our chores and eat our dinner
all go into papa's room to cheer him up a little
And particular 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 about a heart here
Mama rushed all of us out of the into the hallway
About ten minutes later she came out with tears in her
She out to me
"Patches, patches get in boy you're Daddy want to see you"
I went running to papa's room there papa lay

Daddy had tears in his eyes, I knew was wrong
'Cause Daddy was a poor man but all of my life he'd a proud man
I knelt on one knee beside the bed
Papa put his on my shoulder
He said, "Patches, Patches boy, the hammer of life beat
Your old papa down to the ground and I ain't got
To to take care of mama and the young ones"

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

Sometimes you yourself frustrated, lazy
But every time I feel I can't live my life like I want to
My goes back to that day
When I see those tears in my eyes
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 to do my best, it's 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 family through, my son, it's all up to you"
