踢开乌云见世界--著名诗人：梅清。
Papa  drove  a  truck  nearly  all  his  life
You  know  it  drove  mama  crazy  being  a  trucker's  wife
The  part  she  couldn't  handle  was  the  being  alone
I  guess  she  needed  more  to  hold  than  just  a  telephone
Papa  called  Mama  each  and  every  night
Just  to  ask  her  how  she  was  and  if  us  kids  were  alright
Mama  would  wait  for  that  call  to  come  in
When  Daddy'd  hang  up  she  was  gone  again
CHORUS
Mama  was  a  looker
Lord  how  she  shined
Papa  was  a  good'n
But  the  jealous  kind
Papa  loved  Mama
Mama  loved  men
Mama's  in  the  graveyard
Papa's  in  the  pen
Well  it  was  bound  to  happen  and  one  night  it  did
Papa  came  home  and  it  was  just  us  kids
He  had  a  dozen  roses  and  a  bottle  of  wine
If  he  was  lookin'to  surprise  us  he  was  doin'fine
I  heard  him  cry  for  Mama  up  and  own  the  hall
Then  I  h  heard  a  bottle  break  against  the  bedroom  wall
That  old  diesel  engine  made  an  eerie  sound
When  Papa  fired  it  up  and  headed  into  town
Well  the  picture  in  the  paper  showed  the  scene  real  well
Papa's  rig  was  buried  in  the  local  motel
The  desk  clerk  said  he  saw  it  all  real  clear
He  never  hit  the  brakes  and  he  was  shifting  gears
CHORUS
Mama  was  a  looker
Lord  how  she  shined
Papa  was  a  good'n
But  the  jealous  kind
Papa  loved  Mama
Mama  loved  men
Mama's  in  the  graveyard
Papa's  in  the  pen
