A canvas covered cabin

In a crowded labour camp
在拥挤的劳工营里
Stand out in this memory I revived;
站在我复活的回忆里;
Cause my daddy raised a family there

With two hard working hands
用一双勤劳的手
And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes
试图满足我妈妈饥饿的眼神
He dreamed of something better

And my mama's faith was strong
我妈妈信念坚定
And us kids were just to young to realize
我们当时年纪还小意识到
That another class of people
另一类人
Put us somewhere just below;

One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
这是我妈妈眼中充满渴望的原因
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
妈妈从未拥有过她想要的奢侈品
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
我记得爸爸希望过上更好的生活
But I don't recall a change of any size;
但我不记得有多大的变化;
Just a little loss of courage

As their age began to show

And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes
妈妈充满渴望的眼神里流露出更多悲伤
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted

But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try

One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
这是我妈妈眼中充满渴望的原因
Oh I still recall my mama's hungry eyes
