Bill Anderson Picture from Life's Other Side Lyrics:
In the world's mighty gallery of pictures hang the
scenes that're painted from life There hang
pictures of love and of passion and there's
pictures of sorrow and strife There hang pictures
of youth and of beauty of old age and a blushing
young bride But the saddest of all that hang on
the wall are the pictures from life's other side
Just a picture from life's other side someone has
fell by the way A life has gone out with the tide
that might have been happy some day There's a poor
old mother at home who's watching and waiting
alone Just longing to hear from a loved one so

dear it's a picture from life's other side Now the
first scene is that of a gambler who's lost all
his money at play And he reaches down and takes
his dead mother's ring from her finger The one
that she wore long ago on her wedding day It's his
last earthly treasure but he stakes it Then bows
his head that his shame he might hide When they
lifted his head they found he was dead It's just a
picture from life's other side Now the last scene
is that by the river of a heartbroken mother and
babe As the harbor lights shine and they shiver on
an outcast whom that no one can save And yet she
was once a true woman she was somebody's darling
and pride God help her she leaps for there's no
one to weep it's a picture from life's other side
