Luyện nghe bài hát Bummer

His mama was a midnight
His daddy was a drummer
One night put it together
Nine months later came the black bummer

He was a laid back lump in the
Chewing the paint chips that fell from the
he cried he got a fist in his face
So he not to show his feelings

He was a pig-tail in grammar school
back twice by the seventh grade
Sniffing in Junior High
And the first one in to get laid

He was a pusher at fifteen
He was mainlining a year later
He'd started pimping they put him away
In jail he changed from a junkie to a

And just the man from the precinct said
Put him away, you better him instead
A bummer like that is of dead
Someday they're gonna have to put a in his head

They him back on the street, he robbed an A and P
He didn't blink at the buddy that he
And just about the time would have caught him too
He had the damn good fortune to get

He was a-one for Vietnam
You see they more bodies in a hurry
He was a cinch to train 'cause all had to do
Was to figure how to his fury

They put him in a near the D.M.Z.
To catch the gooks slipping over the
They said his was to search and destroy
And for once he and order

One sweat-soaked day in the Yung-Po
the ground still steaming from the rain
There was a bloody battle
That mean nothing
Except to the few that

You see a couple slants
Had the other five tanks
And had to pick off the crews
When he on the scene
And it did seem
This is why he'd those dues

It was something like a butcher going
Or a sane man acting like a
Or the bravest thing that a man had done
Or a blowing his cool

he came on through like a knife through butter
Or a scythe through the grass
Or to say it like the man would have said it
a big black bastard, kicking ass

And just the man from the precinct said
Put him away, you better kill him
A bummer like that is of dead
they're gonna have to put a bullet in his head

When it was over and the had cleared
were a lot of V.C, bodies in the mud
And when the rescued men came
For the first time they found him smiling
As he lay in his

picked up the pieces
And they stitched him together
He pulled though
They thought he was a

And it them to give him
What they said would
Six purple
And the of Honor

Of course he slouched as the chief white said
Service the call of duty
But the first soft thought was passing his mind
My medal is a of a beauty

He got a couple of jobs the ribbon on his chest
And though he tried he really do 'em
There was a couple of things that he was really trained for
And he found himself back to 'em

about the time he was ready to break
The V A sending him his checks
a matter of time 'cause there was no doubt
About he was going to do next

It up one night in a grocery store
Gun in hand and nine at the door
And when his last battle was
He lay crumpled and on the floor

And just the man from the precinct said
Put him away, you better him instead
A bummer like is better of dead
Someday they're gonna to put a bullet in his head

Well he'd breathed his last, but ten minutes
they dared to enter the place
And when they flipped his riddled over they found
His second smile on his face

They found his gun where thrown it
There was something clenched in his fist
And when pried his fingers open
They the medal of honor
And the Sergeant
(Where in the hell, he get this?)

There was a stew burying him in Arlington
So they shipped him in box to
And they of stashed him in a grave in the county plot
The we remember to forget

And just like the man from the precinct
Put him away, you kill him instead
A like that is better of dead
Someday they're have to put a bullet in his head
