[Ab] [D]
A canvas -covered cabin in a [D] crowded labor camp.
Stand out in this memory I [A] revive.
Cause my [D] daddy raised a family there with [G] two hard-working hands.
And tried to feed my [A] mama's hungry eyes.
He dreamed of something better and [G] my mama's faith [D] was strong.
And us kids were just too young to [A] realize
[A]
That [D] another class of people put [G] us somewhere just [D] below.
One more reason for [A] my mama's [D] hungry eyes.
Mama never [G] had the luxury [D] she wanted.
But it wasn't cause [G] my daddy [D] didn't try.
She only [G] wanted things she [D] really needed.
One more reason [A] for my mama's hungry [D] eyes.
I remember daddy praying [D] for a better way of life.
But I don't recall a change [A] of any size.
[E]
Just a little loss of courage [G] as their age began [D] to show.
And more sadness in [A] my mama's [D] hungry eyes.
Mama never [G] had the luxury [D] she wanted.
