A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labour camp
Stand out in this memory I revived;
Cause my daddy raised a family there, with two hard working hands
And tried to feed my mama´s hungry eyes.

He dreamed of something better, and my mama´s faith was strong
And us kids were just to young to realize
That another class of people put us somewhere just below;
One more reason for my mama´s hungry eyes.

Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
But it wasn´t cause my daddy didn´t try.
She only wanted things she really needed;
One more reason for my mama´s hungry eyes.

I remember daddy praying for a better way of life
But I don´t recall a change of any size;
Just a little loss of courage, as their age began to show
And more sadness in my mama´s hungry eyes.

Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
But it wasn´t cause my daddy didn´t try.
She only wanted things she really needed;
One more reason for my mama´s hungry eyes.

Oh, I still recall my mama´s hungry eyes.
