successful records include “Patches”, the best ballad wrote by Carters.
The song “Patches” has as main theme his harrowing family life in
Alabama, and demonstrate with overwhelming clarity how he try to
rescue dignity from disaster trying to pull his family through. In the song,
when his father died, he began working in the fields as only way to
support his family because he was the oldest, and as a father's request,
he didn’t let go of the school. In the song, also have moments that he
was about to give up on everything and run away, but the voice of his
father's deathbed begging for him to take care of the family made him
stay.
“Patches” is an amazing song, and a song that everyone should listen at
least once in a lifetime.
