Luyện nghe bài hát A Better Place To Be

It was an early bar room
And the just opened up
And the little man come in so and it
at his cups

And the broad who the whiskey
She was a big old friendly
And tried to fight her empty
By at the world

And she said "Hey Bub, It's been
Since you around
the hell you been hidin'?
And why you look so ?

The little man just sat there like never heard a sound
The waitress she out with a cough
not the least put off
She spoke again

She said, "I want to bother you
Consider it's
I I'm not no beauty queen
But I sure can good"

And the little man took his in his hand
And he raised it to his
He a couple of sips
And he told that this story

I am the midnight down at Miller's Tool and Die
And I watch the metal rusting, I watch the go by
A week ago at the Diner, I to get a bite
And this here lovely she sat two seats from my right
And Lord, Lord,
She was

You see, she was so damned beautiful she could warm a winter's
But she looked long past lonely, and well nigh lost
Now I'm not of a mover or a pick-em-up easy guy
But I decided to glide on and give her one good try
And Lord, Lord,
She was a try

And I was like a school boy
I stammered out some
It did not seem to matter much 'cause I don't think she
She just looked clear on me to a space back in my head
And it shamed me into silence, as quietly she

'If you want me to come with you all right with me
'Cause I I'm going nowhere and anywhere's a better place to be
a better place to be'

When I drove her to my boarding house and I her up to my room
And I went to turn on the only light to up the gloom
But she said, "Please leave the off, oh, I don't mind the dark"
And as her clothes all tumbled 'round her, I could hear my

The shown upon her as she lay back in my bed
It was the kind of scene I only had in my head
I just could not it, to think that she was real
And as I tried to tell her she said, "I know just how you

And if you want to come here with me all right with me
'Cause I've oh so lonely, lovin' someone is a better way to be
a better way to be"

When the morning came so swiftly I held her in my
She slept like a baby, snug and safe from
I did not want to share her or to break the mood
So before she woke I went out to buy us both food
I came back with my bag to find that she was gone
She'd left a six word letter saying, time that I moved on'

You know the waitress her bar rag
And she wiped it across her
And as she spoke her voice out as something like a sigh
She said, "I that I was beautiful or that you were halfway blind
And I I weren't so goddamned fat, I wish that you were mine
And I wish that you'd with me when I leave for home
For we both all about emptiness and livin' all alone"

And the man
Looked at the glass in his hand
And he a crooked grin
He said, "I I'm out of gin
And I know we both have so lonely

And if you me to come with you that's all right with me
'Cause I know I'm goin' and anywhere's a better place to be'"
