[Intro]
D - D - D - A/D
[Verse 1]
D D G D
A canvas-covered cabin in a crowded labor camp
D A
Stand out in this memory I revive
D D
Because my Daddy raised a family there
G D
With two hard-working hands
D A D
And tried to feed my Mama's hungry eyes
[Verse 2]
D D
He dreamed of something better
G D
And my Mama's faith was strong
D A
And us kids were just too young to realize
D G D
That another class of people put us somewhere just below
D A D (stop)
One more reason for my Mama's hungry eyes
[Chorus]
D G D
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
D G D
But it wasn't 'cause my Daddy didn't try
D G D
She only wanted things she really needed
D A D
One more reason for my Mama's hungry eyes
[Verse 3]
D D G D
I remember Daddy praying for a better way of life
D D A
But I don't recall a change of any size
D D
Just a little loss of courage
G D
As their age began to show
D A D
And more sadness in my Mama's hungry eyes
[Chorus]
D G D
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
D G D
But it wasn't 'cause my daddy didn't try
D G D
She only wanted things she really needed
D A D
One more reason for my Mama's hungry eyes
D A D
Oh, I still recall my Mama's hungry eyes
