Luyện nghe bài hát Cottonseed

I came to tell my to all these young and eager minds
Look in their unspoiled faces and 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 I put on a suit of my own clothes
And even longer since I my shadow on a church house door
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be
I'm guilty of all seven, I feel too bad at all

An' I used to have a wad of hundred dollar bills in the pocket of my suit
I had a .45 underneath my coat and one in my boot
I drove a big ole Cadillac, bought a new one I pleased
And I put more lawmen in the than Alabama put cottonseed

I spent a few years on vacation, sanctioned by the state I
But see a man like me don't do no time too hard to back from
The meanest of the mean, you see you lock away and the key
But they're just loud mouth to me, I've scraped meaner off my shoe

Somewhere I ain't saying, there's a hole holds a judge
The one that I dug myself
And I must I was sad to lay him in it but I did the best I could
Once his honor grows a conscience, well folks, that just ain't no good

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

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

An' I used to a wad of hundred dollar bills in the back pocket of my suit
I had a .45 underneath my coat and another one in my
I drove a big ole Cadillac, bought a new one I pleased
And I put more lawmen in the than Alabama put cottonseed

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