The seventh episode of Bob Dylan's

"Theme Time Radio Hour",

featuring fifteen tracks,

was about the subject 'Fathers'.



The peak of this show for me was another

old Gospel song presented by Bob Dylan,

"Father Alone" by "The Swan Silvertones".










Father Alone
The Swan Silvertones



Father alone

Knows all about it

Father alone

Understands why

Cheer up my brother

Live in the sunshine

You'll understand it

Oh by and by

Tempted and tried

We often wonder

Why it should be

All the day long

While there are others

Livin' all about me

Never molested

Though they are wrong

Father alone

Knows all about it

Father alone

Understands why

Cheer up my brother

Live in the sunshine

You'll understand it

Oh by and by

Oh Father alone

Knows all about it

Father alone

Understands why

Cheer up my brother

Live in the sunshine

Understand it

By and by

Yes Father alone

He knows all about it

Father alone

Understands why

Cheer up my brother

Live in the sunshine

Understand it

By and by

When death has come and

Taken our loved ones

Leavin' our home

Lonely and drear

Hey when we wonder

How others prosper Lord

Livin' wicked

Year after year

Woah Father alone

He knows all about it

Father alone

Understands why

Cheer up my brother

Live in the sunshine

You'll understand it

By and by

Yes Father alone

Oh

He knows

Father alone

Understand why

Cheer up my brother brother

Brother live in the sunshine

You'll understand it

By and by
