Luyện nghe bài hát A Better Place To Be

It was an early morning bar
And the place opened up
And the little man in so fast and it
at his cups

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

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

The little man sat there like he'd never heard a sound
The waitress she gave out a cough
Acting not the put off
She spoke once

She said, "I don't want to you
Consider understood
I I'm not no beauty queen
But I sure can good"

And the man took his drink in his hand
And he raised it to his
He took a couple of
And he told waitress this story

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

You see, she was so beautiful she could warm a winter's frost
But she long past lonely, and well nigh kinda 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 words
It did not seem to matter much 'cause I think she heard
She just looked clear on through me to a back in my head
And it me into silence, as quietly she said

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

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

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

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

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

You know the waitress her bar rag
And she wiped it her eyes
And as she spoke her voice came out as 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 you'd come with me when I leave for home
For we both know all emptiness and livin' all alone"

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

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