Luyện nghe bài hát Bernie (The biggest dustman in the West)

You remember ol' Ernie, how he met his waterloo,
And how two-ton Ted from Teddington went off and married
Well, to all of us, a few years earlier on,
A little lass from Leckhampton gave to Ernie's son.

She'd heard about poor Ernie and the way in which he
"I swear I'll get my on that baker's man," she cried.
For twenty years she back tears and taught her son to be
The refuse collector in the local UDC...

They him Bernie...(Bernie)...
And he the biggest dust cart in the west.

Now Bernie and his mother thought the had come at last
To go and find that and confront him with the past.
They searched the village where he lived and knocked from to door,
And he'd moved from twenty-two to number forty-four.

Then Bernie's mum "Hold it son, while we devise a plan.
The first we must go and do is pinch his baker's van."
So Bernie towed it the road and pushed it in the river,
Then smiled and thought "That's one round there that won't deliver!"

was Bernie...(Bernie)...
And he drove the dustcart in the west.

Bern raced to his mother who was standing by Ted's gate,
They started shouting foul abuse, and didn't long to wait.
The door slowly opened and old Ted came into view,
He them up and down and said "Now who the hell are you?"

"You may ask," said Bernie, "And now you're going to know
That I'm the son of Ernie!" Ted back, "Oh no!
I simply can't believe true. That's rubbish!" he then said.
"No, is!" Bern cried, tipping his load on Ted's new flower bed.

They him Bernie...(Bernie)...
And he drove the dust cart in the west.

Ted said "Well, I'm a widower now, nothing to my name,
Except my lovely daughter Lil," and from the she came.
Her hair was long, her eyes were blue, her smile was bright,
And for Bern up on his dustcart he just knew 'twas on sight.

Their eyes were fixed as she cried, "Please have a heart."
Then Bernie said, "Of course I will, just up on the cart."
And as drove off hand in hand, Bern's mum went up to Ted,
"Forget the past, let's join them!" So the of them were wed.

All to Bernie...(Bernie)...
And he drove the biggest dust in the west!
