My Brothers

My Brothers

V1:
My brothers these memories I cherish with you
Remember all our dreams that did not come true
In those old days we were poor boys from Kentucky
Dad worked each day to keep us fed we were lucky
V2:
We ate Mom's good biscuits on cold weekend days
With bacon and eggs to keep that old hunger away
I think of when we gathered around the kitchen table
With Mom and Dad there keeping our manners stable
Chorus:
My brothers I remember when we were little boys
Our times living together with our sorrows and joys
The days we walked the railroad tracks to gather coal
On those days our bones shivered from the cold
V3:
can you remember those scary stories of Harry Fox
I told you in bed when you were no more than tots
How we cuddled to each other on those cold nights
Even then our brotherly love kept us from any fights
V4:
All these sweet memories I keep stored in my mind
When we loved as brothers in that long ago time
Time has pulled us apart to move and live on our own
Live away with our families don't think of the old home

My brothers I remember when we were just boys
