Merle's haggard did a exellant job as a father And a musician he brought up his boys well with.manners and respect and all them either play guitar or sing that's exellant poor merles gone But his boys are makeing the haggard Name a good one.and makein daddy proud
My Dad had all of Merle's albums! I was the record changer as a kid! Would sit on back porch and sing these songs with my Dad! Those memories are precious!
What a talent ... hard to believe he's gone ... a great lyric: "As kids we were just too young to realize , that another class of people put us somewhere just below ... One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes."
Love listening to him in the beginning of his career. He changed so much with the years and he just got better. He was the best of the best. I will always love his music.
ONE OF HIS PERFORMANCES IN COLUMBIA SC HE SANG WISH I WAS 30 AGAIN AND YOU COULD HAVE HEARD A PIN DROP WE ALL KNEW HIS TIME WAS SHORT AND DREADED THAT DAY, THERE WAS SINCERE LOVE FOR MELE.
Beautiful and very profound text. Friends and I we recorded this music three days ago as an instrumental cover version. With alto saxophone, clarinet, guitar, e-piano, violin and drums. In Germany at the moment you see many hungry mothers eyes and silent crying. I'm making a video out of it for my channel.👍👍👍👍👍👍🎙🎙🎙🎙🎙🎙
His voice and the way he performed his songs changed through the decades, all were incredible. But these early live videos are the real proof of what a soaring vocalist he was.
Grew up watching Cousin Herb's Trading Post Show on channel 10 Bakersfield. Merle, Buck, Spade Cooley, the Maddox Brothers and Rose...didn't know what I had until it was gone.
One of great song from Merle's style with Bonnie's nice harmony in my favorite.!!! Thank you so much for great posting to Daniel-san. ... Your good friend, Tadashi
Lyrics 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
A great song.. not his best performance. Not " real " enough for a Haggard performance. His appearance on Marty Stuart when he was older had more raw emotion and gripped your soul. His son Marty also did a great job with this song.
People forget just how shockingly versatile Merle Haggard was in his Musical prime. In addition to heartrending Ballads he did note perfect hilarious impersonations of Marty Robbins, Hank Snow, Buck Owens, and Johnny Cash. Plus he was a Cover Story of the Jazz Magazine "Downbeat."😂🤔🎤🎼🎵🎶🎸🎹🎻🎷🎺🥁B.W.
I love this song. It touches my heart every time I hear it.
I had a father like that....and my mama always tried to give us the best life
I imagine in heaven,he has a crowd standing around listening to his wonderful singing
❤
Merle is the best - total package !!!!!!
Merle's haggard did a exellant job as a father

But his boys are makeing the haggard
Name a good one.and makein daddy proud
Saw him,Merle and George in concert just don’t come any better than this❤❤❤❤❤
My Dad had all of Merle's albums! I was the record changer as a kid! Would sit on back porch and sing these songs with my Dad! Those memories are precious!

One of the True Few who can actually be called LEGEND!
Bellissimo video... Una canzone cosi emozionante.. R. I. P.. In pace amore... 🤩🤩😍😍🎶🎸🎶💘❤️❤️❤️❤️
This song is a friendly family song. Merle haggard is a sir a legend
A class act we lost real country music when we lost the hag the light of heaven to you Merle Maurice ireland
What a talent ... hard to believe he's gone ... a great lyric:
"As kids we were just too young to realize , that another class of people put us somewhere just below ...
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes."
A lot of people may not realize that line. It was tough as hell for an Okie to make it in the land of promise. Not as easy as one would think.
This reminds me of my life! This song just kills me!
Love listening to him in the beginning of his career. He changed so much with the years and he just got better. He was the best of the best. I will always love his music.
Whether at the beginning, the middle or the end ... one thing constant for all eternity is that Merle Haggard is the greatest that ever was.
Definitely got better the older he got..
ONE OF HIS PERFORMANCES IN COLUMBIA SC HE SANG WISH I WAS 30 AGAIN AND YOU COULD HAVE HEARD A PIN DROP WE ALL KNEW HIS TIME WAS SHORT AND DREADED THAT DAY, THERE WAS SINCERE LOVE FOR MELE.

Beautiful song .... thank you for the share.
Love Bonnie Owens....

One of his biggies.. A great song off Merle's 1969 album titled "A Portrait of Merle Haggard". One of six albums Merle would release in 1969.
This is probably my all time favorite Hag song... Most of his songs have heart and emotion but, this really hits me!
This is my favorite, but love them all :)
Merle told us about his experiences the last time the world fell apart, the Great Depression
My husband and I both love Merle. He was Great!!!
Loved this one Daniel Merle at his very best beautiful my friend thank you from Phil .
legend
Singing with Bonnie Owens his wife. Roy Nichols over their left shoulder, and Norman Hamlet on the steel.
Probably the saddest country songs ever.
I think it's beautiful too... :)
Thanks again Michele!! Glad you like it!!

“Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show” if that don’t break your heart.
merle always licked his lips to keep from crying.
Yes
Anyone else here for a school assignment?
Lyrics
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
Oh ibu,,,
why the h--- did he ever leave Bonnie??
Assuming it to be lip synched since no one in the video is playing the guitar licks we hear.
A great song.. not his best performance. Not " real " enough for a Haggard performance. His appearance on Marty Stuart when he was older had more raw emotion and gripped your soul. His son Marty also did a great job with this song.
Looks like Randy Travis singing back up.
Is that George Jones there ?
Did you see merle put the quitar back to move Bonnie back. I don't know she tries to out power merle. Dumb founded me
