nanci griffith – mary & omie كلمات اغاني
my daddy was a longsh-r-man in new orleans,
my mamma kept score just watchin’ the mardi gras …
oh me, … i sat on the front porch watchin’ the rails roll out,
i was waitin’ for my omie to take me outta this south
it was me and my sisters … like to wore that front porch out
and there can’t be more to this livin’ than loving my omie
we’re both sittin’ back here watchin’ our children grow
if there’s a better ace in the deck,
well, … baby, come on and show me …
if you ain’t got a hand then get on your wheel and roll,
‘cuz there could never be a better hand than these hearts i hold
me and my omie … we settled down here in houston
oh, and one by one, we moved my sisters west
we bought a house in the suburbs and we’ve got four fine children
we are black middle cl-ss because omie wouldn’t settle for less
we are black middle cl-ss because omie wouldn’t settle for less
and there can’t be more to this livin’ than loving my omie
we’re both sittin’ back here watchin’ our children grow
if there’s a better ace in the deck,
well, … baby, come on and show me …
if you ain’t got a hand then get on your wheel and roll,
‘cuz there could never be a better hand than these hearts i hold
my children are the first thing in my mornin’ …
my omie is the last thing in my night
oh, in between i dream about that porch back home
and i bless my daddy for the love within that house
but, … i thank my omie for takin’ me outta the south
… look at these hearts i hold … oh, look at these hearts i hold
… look at these hearts i hold … there ain’t no place like home
look at these hearts we hold … look at those hearts you hold
hey! … my omie’s got a heart of gold … look at these hearts we hold
… take a look at those hearts you hold …!”
