Luyện nghe bài hát Boy Named Sue

Boy Sue

my daddy left home when I was three
And he didn't much for Ma and me
Just old guitar and an empty bottle of booze
Now I don't him because he run and hid
But the meanest that he ever did
Was he left he went and named me Sue

Well he have thought it was quite a joke
And it got lots of from a lot of folks
It seems I had to fight my life through
gal would giggle and I'd get red
Some guy would laugh and I'd his head
I tell you life ain't for a boy named Sue

Well I grew up and I grew up mean
My fist got hard and my got keen
I roamed from to town to hide my shame
Well I my vows to the moon and stars
I'd search the tonks and the bars
And kill that man that gave me awful name

Well it was in mid July
And I just hit town and my was dry
I'd thought I'd stop and have a brew
At an old on a street of mud
There at a table dealing
Sat that dirty dog that named me Sue

Well I knew that sneak was my own dad
a wornout picture that my mother had
And I knew that on his cheek and his evil eye
He was big and and gray and old
And I looked at him and my ran cold
And I said my is Sue how do you do
Now you're gonna die yeah that's I told him

Well I hit him hard between the eyes
And he went down but to my
He up with a knife and cut off a piece of my ear
Well I busted a chair right his teeth
And we crashed through the wall and the street
and a gougin' in the mud and the blood and the beer

I tell you fought tougher men
But I really remember when
He kicked like a mule and bit a crocodile
I heard him and I heard him cuss
He went for his gun and I mine first
He there looking at me and I saw him smile

And he said son this world is
And if a man's make it he's gotta be tough
And I know I be there to help you along
So I gave you name and I said goodbye
I knew you'd have to get or die
And it's that name that helped to you strong

He said you one heck of a fight
And I know you me and you've got the right
To kill me now I wouldn't you if you do
But you oughta thank me I die
For the gravel in guts and the spit in your eye
For I'm the son of a bitch named you Sue
(Lester the hell that you say)

Yeah could I do
I got all choked up and I down the gun
Called him a Pa and he me son
And I come away with a different point of
And I about him now and then
Every I try and every time I win
And if I ever have a son I I'll name him
Well I ain't gonna him Sue
I'm call him Johnny Cash
