[D]
[Bm] A [D]
canvas covered cabin [G] in a crowded labor camp
Stands out in this memory [A] I revive
[A] Cause my [D] daddy raised a family there
[G] With two hard [D] working hands
To try to [A] feed my mama's [D] hungry eye
[Bm] He dreamed of something [D] better
[G] And my mama's faith was strong
And us kids were just too young to [A]
realize
[D] That another class of people
Put [G] us somewhere just [D] below
One more reason for [A] my mama's [D] hungry eye
Mama never had the jury she wanted
But it wasn't cause [G] my daddy [D] didn't try
She only wanted [G] things she [D] really needed
One more reason for [A] my mama's [D] hungry eye
I remember daddy praying for [G] a better way [D] of life
But I don't recall a change of [A] any side
Just [D] a little loss of courage
As [G] their age began [D] to show
And more sadness in [A] my mama's [D] hungry eye
Mama never had [G] the luxury she [D]
wanted
But it wasn't cause [G] my daddy [D] didn't try
She only wanted [G] things she really [D]
needed
One more reason for [A] my mama's [D] hungry eye
Oh, I still recall [A] my mama's [D] hungry eye
[G] [N]
[Bm] A [D]
