Mama's Hungry Eyes

A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labour camp

  • A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labour camp
  • Stand out in this memory I revived
  • 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
  • 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
  • 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
  • Oh I still recall my mama's hungry eyes
