The Carter Family - Picture on the Wall [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
There's an old and faded picture on the wall
That has been a-hanging there for many a-year
This a picture of my mother
For I know there is no other
That can take the place of mother on the wall

[Chorus]
On the wall (on the wall) on the wall (on the wall)
How I love that dear old picture on the wall
Time is quickly passing by and I bow my head and cry
Because I know I'll meet my mother after all

[Verse 2]
Yes, the children all have gathered, all have gone
And I have a little family of my own
And I know I love them well
More than any time can tell
But I'll hold that dear old picture on the wall

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Since I lost that dear old mother years ago
There is none to which with troubles I can go
As my guitar makes its chords
I am praying to the Lord
Let me hold that dear old picture on the wall

[Chorus]
