Luyện nghe bài hát Amen

(Chris Jonat)

Well I'm Jonathan Charles Henry
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 year later bear being alone
going on ten years I been head of this home
Now I got me a and three boys of my own
I hard, I live clean, I reap what I've sewn

Aint had rain to speak of in near a year
Crops searching for but there aint nothing near
We need something soon, but it come I fear
My won't eat, wife'll run out of tears.
So I went to the forty, said I needed the air
I walked the fence, through the Johnson share
And when I made right sure no one followed me
I got down on my knees, Lord, do you care?

Amen, Amen, Oh Lord, Amen,

Next came early sleep still in my eyes
My eldest, Three, he was the first to rise
He said, Daddy come I got the biggest surprise
We jumped to our cause we realized
Could hear the pounding the patio door
And sneaking through cracks onto the kitchen
We in the yard til we could stand it no more
Then got down on our knees gave our thanks to the

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

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