Luyện nghe bài hát Amen

(Chris Jonat)

Well I'm Jonathan Henry McKay
I've lived on farm 30 years and a day
Some folks call me Junior but I don't like it way
the storm of '90 when dad left to stay
Mom passed a later couldn't bear being alone
It's going on ten years I been of this home
Now I got me a wife and boys of my own
I work hard, I clean, I reap what I've sewn

had rain to speak of in round near a year
Crops for water but there aint nothing near
We need something soon, but it won't I fear
My children won't eat, run out of tears.
So I went to the back forty, said I the air
I walked past the fence, through the share
And I made right sure no one followed me there
I got down on my knees, cried Lord, do you

Amen, Amen, Oh Lord, Amen,

Next morning came early sleep still in my
My eldest, John Three, he was the first to
He said, Daddy come quick I got the surprise
We to our clothes cause we realized
Could the rain pounding the patio door
And sneaking through onto the kitchen floor
We danced in the til we could stand it no more
Then got down on our gave our thanks to the Lord

I sent the boys to their aunts, day before
Yesterday morning the wife get there fast
The keeps rising it's already past
The roof of the house but I'm pat
Now I'm top of the tree my daddy once climbed
And I'm thinking I'm done though it don't my time
I got to do, business to mind
Wanna watch the boys grow, see the next in my
And I can't bow down, cause no land for my knees
But I'm crying out loud now, I'm asking you
Father have mercy, Jesus hear my
Lord up in I'm not ready to leave

Well I'm Charles Henry McKay
And I've lived on this farm my ten and a day
folks call me Three but I don't like it that way
Since daddy done his own life for rain
