Luyện nghe bài hát Esther (alternate Version)

It was late one fall night at a fairground town
When Esther saw the Armenian man
Who groveled toward her and stood by her
With a bucket swung in his hand

His grin stretched the folds of his pasty cheeks
And his hurled a dollop of murk on the curb
And the lights from the rides a mischievous sparkle
That in his hollow eyed stare

He said, "Little girl, you can chop off my
And then off my socks if you want to
But I'd you took this old puppet from me
I hold in my pail as we speak"

And he stood down at the innocent girl
And she at the bucket bewildered
Then he the doll for the young girl to see
And a giant grew on his face

She saw the doll's and she couldn't resist
And she thanked the man quickly and ran to the
And she burst through the door with held high
And a hush filled the chapel and the people mean

Esther tried in to pacify the mob
Quibble grew to spat, to wrangle, to brawl
The frenzied congregation struggled to fetch
The pretty puppet snugly nestled in Esther's leather sack

Through the window of the church, a storm began to
And Esther knew the time had come to
She down the aisle toward the doorway in the distance
And out the rainstorm where she felt she would be free

But the was blowing harder
And her skirt began to billow, finally her feet began to lift
And she rose above the and the people and the chimneys
And Esther and the doll were set

Floating higher the hills
And the valleys and treetops they'd and glide
Soaring and turning on air
With the earth far them they'd tumble
And through the clouds

And she began to earthward
Till she in the nasty part of town
She glanced about the village sure to find the men
Who rob and in the darkest hour of night

Nervously she fumbled for the pouch that held the on her rump
quite outnumbered Esther hid behind
A nearby pile of lumber, she waited till the dawn
'Cause it would have been a
To to a hoodlum on the prowl

When the came, she wandered through the streets
Along the chilly that lay beside the town
At last a peaceful moment, but she thought she a sound
It was an angry mob of coming up to knock her down

As Esther stood and shook her head the joggers were
And she knew she had no choice left but to
As the frosty water sank its bitter into her hide
She tried to slide the heavy clothing from her

Naked now she made her way toward the
When suddenly she felt a tiny at her toe
And the she'd forgotten wrapped its tiny
Little arms around her ankle and let her go

The seemed to open and swallow her whole
As the doll pulled her through the eerie green deep
And the sound of the laughing old man filled her
As she away to a tranquil and motionless sleep
