Luyện nghe bài hát Bluegrass Widow

Its been five years come this autumn, she well the day
The day the fever got him and him far away
Far away from knowing that the love they shared was true
Far the fiddlers bowing, the grass forever blue
It was in the dead of winter when her man caught the chill
And he said he heard the singing, "Cabin on the Hill"
Through the springtime he was
"The times are past and gone"
By the summer she was moaning, "Old please come home"

Now she out in the midnight, in the moonlight all aglow
She to Carter Stanley, "Wont you please tell Bill Monroe
Rather be in some dark hollow or dark deep shady grove
Than to be a widow"

I started listening to bluegrass
In Bryan rust red 1970 Ford Maverick
Had an eight tape deck
And an eight track of Bill Monroes Greatest Hits
We used to skip second chemistry
Go over to the Shamrock station across the
From the high school and get a case of Texas Pride
it on my dads credit card

And get em to it up as oil so dad never knew the difference
wed ride around and drink Texas Pride
Listen to Bill Monroe, we got to be bluegrass experts
And wed stop in another Shamrock
And get another Texas Pride
Drink that and to the Stanley Brothers
And then wed go get a tape of Jim and

And it was on to the Colonels
And Mack Wiseman and the New Grass Revival, Rowan
And finally I got the brilliant one day
To take all the bluegrass song titles in the world
And string em together to make this right here
Bluegrass Widow'
Quite possibly the bluegrass song ever written

I did this in tribute to the Front Boys
was a bluegrass band, I was in, in College Station, Texas
We were a four piece band
We played weddings and parties and out on the and beer joints
And one weekend on a of cheap amphetamines
We decided to go to Crockett,
We the International Bluegrass Band Competition
And took second

We could play faster than anybody in the
The other two took first and third, respectively
I met some friends and off into the night
Separated the Front Porch Boys and met back up with them
In the cold, gray light of dawn, as the songs say
They were standing underneath a giant pine tree
In Crockett the rudest, most grotesque
Nastiest bluegrass you've ever heard in your life

Im talking about the of song
Where not is the character in the song
Dead by the end of the song but hes been as well
And the Porch Boys stopped
And looked up at me just enough to say
"Were taking music where its never been before
And were not taking you us
Cuz you dont have that and lonesome sound
That music requires"

Well, Im not one to failure, I packed up my stuff and left
The Front Boys broke up three days later
When they realized I the PA system
"Will you me when Im gone?" were his final words to her
"Darlin think of what done," then replied his Knoxville girl
And the leaves had started when his mind began to fail
Then he down in a breakdown, now she wears a long black veil

And she stands out in the midnight in the all aglow
She prays to Carter Stanley, "Wont you please Bill Monroe
be in some dark hollow or some dark deep shady grove
Than to be a widow"

And she stands out in the in the moonlight all aglow
She prays to Carter Stanley, "Wont you please Bill Monroe
Rather be in some dark or some dark deep shady grove
Than to be a widow"
