Luyện nghe bài hát Black Cowboys

Raney William's playground was among streets
Where he ran past melted and flower wreaths
Names and photos of the black faces
Whose death and blood consecrated places

Raney's said Raney stay at my side
For you are my blessing, you are my
It's your love here that my soul alive
I want you to home from school and stay inside

do his work and put his books away
There was a channel showed a Western movie
And that brought him home books on the black of the Oklahoma range
The Seminole scouts that the tribes of the Great Plains

come and the days grew long
Raney had his mother's smile to depend on
Along the street of bullets he made his way
To the of her arms at the end of each day

the Fall, the rain flooded these homes
In valley of dry bones
It fell hard and dark to the
It without a sound

And they took up a man whose business was the boulevard
Whose smile was fixed in a face that was never off
In the pipes 'neath the kitchen his secrets are kept
In the day, behind drawn curtains in the next he slept

And she got lost in the
The smile Raney depended on away
The that held him were no more his own
He lay at night his head pressed to her listening to the ghost in her bones

In the kitchen, Raney slipped his between the pipes
From a brown bag pulled five hundred dollar bills and stuck it in his coat
Stood in the at his mother's bed
Brushed her hair and her eyes

In the twilight Raney walked to the station on of stone
Through Pennsylvania and Ohio his train on
Through the small towns of the big train crept
As he lay his head on his seat and slept

He woke and the towns way to muddy fields of green
Corn and cotton and endless in between
Over the rutted hills of Oklahoma the red sun and was gone
The moon rose and stripped the earth to its
