Hank Williams - Picture From Life`s Other Side слова песни
In the world`s mighty gallery of pictures hang the scenes that`re painted from lifeThere hang pictures of love and of passion and there`s pictures of sorrow and strifeThere hung pictures of youth and of beauty of old age and a blushing young brideThey all hung on the wall but the saddest of all are the pictures from life`s other sideJust a picture from life`s other side someone has fell by the wayA life has gone out with the tide that might have been happy some dayThere`s a poor old mother at home she`s watching and waiting aloneJust longing to hear from a loved one so dear just a picture from life`s other sideThe first scene is that of a gambler who had lost all his money at playNeeds all his dead mother`s ring from her fingerThe one that she wore long ago on her wedding dayIt`s his last earthly treasure but he stakes itThen he bows his head that his shame he might hideBut when they lifted his head they found he was deadIt`s just a picture from life`s other sideNow the last scene is that by the river of a heartbroken mother and babeAs the harbor lights shine and they shiver on an outcast whom no one will saveAnd yet she was once a true woman she was somebody`s darling and prideGod help her she leaps for there`s no one to weepIt`s just a picture from life`s other side
