Luyện nghe bài hát Ballad Of Hank Williams

Don, us how it really was
When you was working with

Well, in 1950, I a little nip
with Mr. Williams on the way to Mississippi
We was 8 deep in a Packard limousine
And we met this promoter in the of New Orleans

Now the man told daddy he had what it took
And he liked the way he sang and he liked the way he
He said, pretty soon make us all rich
And we believing that fat sum bitch

Daddy the man, "If you wanna make some dough
a little money and book me on a show"
And we played them dates and we filled the places
But Hank, he'd done blowed the profits all to

he'd run through a 10 and he'd run through a 20
And run through a 100 just as fast as it could go
Like a big dose of to a little bitty fella
He'd spend a 1000 dollars on a 100 dollar

Hank looked at me with a funny grin
Said, "I've been to the and I'm going back again"
We met the owner in a office there
And a big fat fella with some hair

He told Hank, he wanted half of he made
Or he'd have to Audrey 'bout some women Hank had laid
And you daddy, he'd better get smart
Get rid of them and make a new start

And he my ass and he fired Jerry Rivers
And he everybody just as hard as he could go
He fired old Cedric and he fired Pruitt
And he fired some people that he didn't even

Well, every song he made it went to one
Y'all was working like and you was having fun
We was riding every day and playing night
And every 20 minutes of us had a fight

Now, daddy he was making money over fist
And y'all was getting screwed but you wasn't getting
Yeah, I told him to pass a little bit
But he said, he'd rather send it to his in Alabama

So he fired your ass and he fired Rivers
And he fired everybody just as hard as he go
He fired old Cedric and he fired Sammy
And he fired people that he didn't even know

Now the owner of the Opry, he's a doing good
He's got a company that they call Cedarwood
And Hank played nothing but sold out
And I was gas in greasy overalls

'Cause he my ass and he fired Jerry Rivers
And he fired everybody as hard as he could go
He fired old Cedric and he fired Sammy
And he fired some people that he didn't know

run through a 50 and he'd run through a 100
And he'd run through a 1000 just as as he could go
Buying Cadillac coots, double alimony
And he fired people that he didn't even know

Don you know, you
You to work for me one time?
I sure know that come but to think of it
You my ass back in 1972

Oh, well a family tradition ya know?
Yap, yap, yap, yap
But I Jerry Rivers
Right,
