The Carter Family - Picture On The Wall video free download

There's an old and faded picture

on the wall

That has been a-hanging there

for many a-year

'Tis a picture of my mother for I know

there is no other

That can take the place of mother

on the wall

On the wall, on the wall

How I love that dear old picture

on the wall

Time is swiftly passing by and I

bow my head and cry

'Cause I know I'll meet my mother

after all

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

On the wall, on the wall

How I love that dear old picture

on the wall

Time is swiftly passing by and I

bow my head and cry

'Cause I know I'll meet my mother

after all

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

On the wall, on the wall

How I love that dear old picture

on the wall

Time is swiftly passing by and I

bow my head and cry

'Cause I know I'll meet my mother

after all
