Luyện nghe bài hát Cottenseed

I came to tell my story to all these young and minds
To look in unspoiled faces and their curious bright eyes
Stories of corruption, crime and killing, yes true
and fixed elections, guns and drugs and whores and booze

It's been a while since I put on a suit of my own
And longer since I cast my shadow on a church house door
They say every sin is deadly but I believe may be wrong
I'm guilty of all seven and I feel too bad at all

I used to have a wad of hundred dollar bills in the back of my suit

The last one that I dug
And I admit I was sad to lay him in it, but I did the best I could

There's a pretty out there said "Daddy, you stay cool tonight
All I need from you is to come home and be here by my
Say you gotta say to shut their Bibles and their mouths
If they was to tie a noose, they'd to lay their Bibles down"

I ain't here to save no souls and if I could
I never save enough to put back half the ones I took
So if they rest in torment you say it's cause of me
long been bought and paid for like that fool's in Tennessee
