Luyện nghe bài hát Chestnut Street Revisited

Well I've lived and breathed and been
In these small town streets too
I've nothin' but aces and been many places
And on the corner 'til dawn
But my they have been tied
To a life I've been
I'm just a small town boy bein' like a toy
And workin' a to five

Well I worked like a fool 'til done with high school
to form a rock and rollin' band
But the streets exploding and my life I was decoding
Had a dream I couldn't
And but I work it out
For no fun and very pay
I'm a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And doin' what people say

Well I've drooled and and been ridiculed
For dreams just above my reach
And I've lied and died and suicide
For all the things you people wanna
But I always had to the other way
When I heard home folks say
They say, "You're just a small boy bein' used like a toy
And on a day to day"

But you believe that when I walk down the tracks
All those young fall back and they say
"There goes sleek young silhouette
He don't drive no but he stings just like a Sting Ray"
And that's my redemption in this house of detention
That keeps me simply blowin' it all away
'Cause when I walk down the in the hot summer heat
I say, "God don't this away"

by the end of the day, all the kids would go play
And I'd come staggering home
those dream in my hand and a master plan
That wouldn't my mind alone
I compromised all my schemes
And I all my dreams
But I'm just a town boy bein' used like a toy
And is like it really seems

But what a fool I must seem to have all these
And try to them all through
It's like a slap on your face, a mercury chrome taste
the dream, the dream is long overdue
And it seems strange that nobody came
To the game that I have put through
And when I walk down the street in the hot summer
I say, "What the can I do?"

Well I keep hopin' and wishin' that these positions
Gonna me hide all this pain
And all the hurt that I've felt my leather studded belt
Of not findin' my fortune and
Some day I'll blow 'em away the things that I sing and I say
I'm just a small boy bein' used like a toy
And on my pay day

I'm just a small town boy used like a toy
And on my pay day
One two four
