Luyện nghe bài hát Cooky and Lila

(D. Hickey)

He was a order cook, and not too much to look at
And he in his foot, for a medal in the war
He a girl named Lila, in a bar across the highway
And you ought to see him smilin' at her comin' through the

always knew, she wasn't no ravin' beauty
She traded in her virtue to a at sixteen
But she forgets to remember how he her off in Denver
When she sees her Cooky as she opens up the screen

And he
"Hi Lila, how about a cup of
Take a off, take your shoes off, here's the sugar and the cream"
Cooky's been to war and been to Denver
And both of them are casualties of someone else's

Cooky pours the trucker's coffee, Lila serves the rigger's
And resists their invitations to go ridin' for a
'Cause at a across the highway, on a shelf above the pastry
There's a cup reserved for and the man who makes her smile

When he
"Hi Lila, how about a cup of
Take a load off, take your shoes off, here's the and the cream"
'Cause Cooky's to war and Lila's been to Denver
And both of them are of someone else's dream

Now as the nation rolls along, like a semi the highway
Casting lonely broken in the grass along the road
I've finally found a reason for in the future
Seeing and his Lila drinking coffee all alone

Oh yes
"Hi Lila, how a cup of coffee?
Take a load off, take your shoes off, the sugar and the cream"
'Cause Cooky's been to war and been to Denver
And of them are casualties of someone else's dream

been to war, Lord and Lila's been to Denver
And both of them are casualties of else's dream
