Luyện nghe bài hát Coward Of The County

Everyone him the coward of the county
He'd never stood one time to prove the county wrong
His mama named him Tommy, but folks just him Yellow
Something always me, they were reading Tommy wrong

He was only ten years old when his daddy in prison
I looked Tommy, 'cause he was my brother's son
I still the final words my brother said to Tommy
"Son, my life is over, but has just begun"

"Promise me, son, not to do the things done
Walk from trouble if you can
It won't mean you're if you turn the other cheek
I you're old enough to understand
Son, you don't to fight to be a man"

There's someone for and Tommy's love was Becky
In her arms, he didn't have to he was a man
One day while he was working, the boys came calling
They took turns at Becky an' was three of them

Tommy up the door and saw his Becky crying
The torn dress, the look was more than he could stand
He reached the fireplace and took down his daddy's picture
As his tears fell on his face, he heard these words again

"Promise me, Son, not to do the things done
Walk away from if you can
It won't you're weak if you turn the other cheek
I hope you're old enough to
Son, you have to fight to be a man"

The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the bar
One of got up and met him half way cross the floor
When Tommy turned they said, "Hey look! Old Yellow's leaving"
But you could've heard a pin
When Tommy and locked the door

Twenty years of crawling were up inside him
He wasn't nothing back, he let 'em have it all
When Tommy left the bar room, not a Gatlin boy was
He said, "This one's for Becky, as he the last one fall
An I him say

"I promised you, Dad, not to do the things done
I walk away from when I can
Now please don't think I'm weak, I didn't turn the cheek
And Papa, I hope you understand
Sometimes you gotta fight you're a man"

Everyone him the coward of the county
