Luyện nghe bài hát Cooky and Lila

(D. Hickey)

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

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

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

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

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

Now as the nation rolls along, like a semi down the
Casting broken bodies in the grass along the road
I've finally found a for believing in the future
Cooky and his Lila drinking coffee all alone

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

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