Bill Anderson
Hungry Eyes

(Merle Haggard)

A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp
Stands 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
And us kids were just too young to realize
That another class 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.

--- Instrumental ---

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 one more sadness in 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 still recall my mama's hungry eyes...


Mirror lyrics:

I still recall my mama's hungry eyes...

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

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

--- Instrumental ---

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

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

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