Ma would never say what happened | |
And we knew better than push too hard | |
We knew we had all the chores to tend to | |
Like fixing fences and helping her | |
Washing dishes and making coffee | |
Me and Virgil'd chop some wood | |
But we'd stop our swinging | |
Just to listen to her crying | |
It didn't sound too good | |
I can remember, too well | |
But we never thought to pay much heed | |
We learned to live life the best we could | |
But then one day pa upped and left us | |
High and dry without a word | |
Seemed a pity | |
My ma was pretty | |
But I soon learned life ain't that way | |
And I can remember hearing her weeping | |
While we were sleeping next to her | |
I can remember | |
I'll never forgive and I'll never forget | |
Cos pa you broke her heart | |
Ooh pa you broke her heart | |
You broke her heart | |
Ooh pa you broke her heart | |
Well the years rolled by | |
And 'fore we knew it | |
Our sister got married and moved out west | |
I stayed with ma, cos I couldn't desert her | |
I knew it would hurt her to be alone | |
So we pulled tighter | |
We said we'd try to make things easy | |
And raise a smile | |
But as the night came | |
We'd hear her crying | |
Praying for pa to come back again | |
I can remember | |
I'll never forgive him and I'll never forget | |
Cos pa you broke her heart | |
Oh pa you broke her heart | |
And then the winter came | |
I'd never known it colder | |
Ooh it seemed the worst for years | |
And the night she died I swear I saw her smiling | |
Saying I was a big boy now, no tears | |
So I packed up all we had, and Virgil got the horses | |
And we paid our last respects and gave the whip a crack | |
Ooh, seemed a big bad world, we were riding into | |
Me and Virgil both agreed, we best head off | |
And don't look back | |
Nothing but desert all around | |
Oh it made me wonder | |
Lord it's hard to carry on | |
When you're sick with hunger | |
Weeks and months of sleeping rough | |
Keeping clear of danger | |
Seems we were miles from anywhere | |
And too far gone to change it | |
We'd best keep going, don't look back | |
Well me and Virgil we beat the desert | |
Riding fast and riding hard | |
We hit the city, the past behind us | |
So we raised some hell, we had some fun | |
But real soon I met a lady oh so pretty, and oh so fine | |
'fore too long I found myself married | |
With a home of my own and a blue eyed son | |
And 'til this day I can hear ma saying to me - | |
"You're a big boy now" |
