In the world's mighty gall'ry of pictures
Hang scenes that
are painted from life,
There's pictures of joy and of sorrow,
There's pictures of peace and
of strife,
There's pictures of youth and of beauty'
Old age and the blushing young
bride.
All hang on the wall, but the saddest of all,
Is a picture from life's other
side.
cho: it's a picture from life's other side,
Someone who fell by the way;
A life has gone out with the tide
That may have been happy one day;
Some poor old
mother at home
Is watching and waiting alone,
Just longing to hear from her loved
ones so dear,
it's a picture from life's other side.
The first scene is that of a
gambler,
Who lost all his money at play,
Draws his dead mother's ring from his
finger
That she wore on her wedding day.
His last earthly treasure, he stakes it
Bows his head that his shame he might hide,
When they lifted his head, they found he was
dead,
It's a picture from life's other side.
The next scene is that of two
brothers
Whose paths in life different ways led,
The one was a-living' in luxury
While
t'other one begged for his bread;
One dark night they met on a highway, | | | |
