Luyện nghe bài hát Patches

I was and raised down in Alabama
On a farm way back up in the
I was so that folks used to call me Patches
Papa used to tease me it
'Cause deep down inside he was
'Cause done all he could

My was a great old man
I can see him with a in his hands, see
he never had
He did wonders the times got bad
The little money the crops he raised
Barely paid the bills we

For, had kick him down to the ground
he tried to get up
Life would kick him down
One day Papa called me to his bed
Put his on my shoulders
And in his tears he

He said,
I'm on you, son
To the family through
My son, all left up to you

Two later Papa passed away, and
I became a man day
So I told Mama I was quit school, but
She said was Daddy's strictest rule

So mornin' 'fore I went to school
I fed the and I chopped wood too
Sometimes I felt I couldn't go on
I wanted to leave, just run from home
But I remember what my daddy said
With in his eyes on his dyin' bed

He said,
I'm on you, son
I tried to do my
It's up to you to do the

one day a strong rain came
And washed all the crops
And at the age of 13 I
I was carryin' the of the
Whole on my shoulders
And you know, Mama
I was goin' through, 'cause

Every day I had to work the
'Cause the only way we got our meals
You see, I was the oldest of the
And everybody depended on me
night I heard my Mama pray
Lord, give him the to make another day

So years have passed and all the are grown
The angels took Mama to a brand new
knows, people, I shedded tears
But my daddy's voice kept me the years

Sing,
Patches, I'm on you, son
To pull the family
My son, it's all up to you

Oh, I can still Papa's voice sayin'
Patches, I'm on you, son
I've to do my best
It's up to you to do the

I can still Papa, what he said
Patches, I'm on you, son
To pull the family
My son, it's all up to you
