Luyện nghe bài hát Patches

I was born and down in Alabama
On a farm way back up in the
I was so ragged folks used to call me Patches
used to tease me about it
'Cause deep down inside he was
'Cause he'd all he could

My papa was a old man
I can see him with a in his hands, see
Education he had
He did wonders when the got bad
The little money the crops he raised
Barely paid the we made

For, life had kick him down to the
When he to get up
Life kick him back down
One day called me to his dyin' bed
Put his hands on my
And in his he said

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

Two days Papa passed away, and
I a man that day
So I told I was gonna quit school, but
She said was Daddy's strictest rule

So every mornin' 'fore I to school
I fed the and I chopped wood too
Sometimes I felt that I go on
I to leave, just run away 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 to do my best
It's up to you to do the

Then one day a rain came
And all the crops away
And at the age of 13 I
I was the weight of the
world on my shoulders
And you know, knew
I was goin' through, 'cause

Every day I had to work the
'Cause that's the way we got our meals
You see, I was the of the family
And else depended on me
Every night I heard my Mama
Lord, give him the strength to make day

So years have passed and all the kids are
The angels took Mama to a brand new
Lord knows, people, I tears
But my daddy's voice me through 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 hear voice sayin'
Patches, I'm on you, son
tried to do my best
It's up to you to do the

I can hear Papa, what he said
Patches, I'm on you, son
To the family through
My son, all left up to you
