Mama's Hungry Eyes

  D                         G             D 
A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp, 
                             A 
Stand out in this memory I revived. 
         D                                G               D 
Cause my daddy raised a family there with two hard workin hands, 
                     A             D 
And tried to feed my mama's hungry eye's. 
 
 
D                                     G                D           
He dreamed of something better and my mama's faith was strong, 
                                     A 
And us kids were just to young to realize. 
      D                             G                D 
That another class of people put us somewhere just below, 
                       A             D 
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes. 

     D             G            D 
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted, 
                       G            D 
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try. 
                G                 D 
She only wanted things she really needed, 
                       A             D 
One more reason for my mama's hungry eye's. 
 
D                             G             D 
I remember daddy prayin for a better way of life, 
                                   A 
But I don't recall a change of any size. 
       D                               G            D 
Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show, 
                       A             D 
And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes.
