Luyện nghe bài hát Ballad Of Forty Dollars

The man who preached the said it really was a simple way to die
He laied to rest one afternoon and never up his eyes
They hired me and and Joe to dig the grave and carry up some chairs
It took us hours and I guess we must've drunk a case of beer
I guess I oughta go and watch them put him but I don't own the suit
And when they start talkin' about the fire and hell well I get spooked
So I'll just sit in my truck and act like I don't know him when they pass
when they're all through I've got to go to work and mow the grass
Here they come and who's ridin' in that big ole shiny limousine
Look at all that chrome I do believe that's the sharpest thing seen
must belong to his rich Uncle someone said he owned a big ole farm
When get parked I'll mosey down and look it over that won't do no harm
that must be the widow in the car and would you take a look at that
That sure is a pretty dress you know women do look good in black
He's not in the ground and they say that his track is up for sale
They say she took it pretty but you can't tell too much behind a veil
Listen that pretty when the bugler plays the military taps
I think that when in the war they always hired and played a song like that
Well here I am and there they go and I guess you'd call it my bad luck
I hope he'll rest in peace but trouble is that fellow owes me forty
