Luyện nghe bài hát Folk Monologue

Can I get my glass of mmm, nothing like it!
At this time I like very much to do a folksong. since folksongs,
I think are still popular today. uhm, this one is in latvian and
From latvia. and it's about this girl who uhm, had this lover.
And then one day this decides that he doesn't like her anymore
And likes her sister better. so she decided that the only to do
Naturally was to kill herself, see. so one day, oh, was very out
About 75 degrees, and she was this walk down to the river to
when she, she tripped over this rock see. and uhm, oh it was
Awful I mean, she broke her glasses, she her knees. and uhm,
Just at this the lover and the sister happen to come by in a
Taxicab. so, see they saw her on the and she, having an
Astigmatism in her left eye, she thought that it was a bore. so,
She oh boy I'd better get down to the river fast to drown so
She runs down there and what do you the river was frozen. so i
Mean she just stood there you know and she tchhh, like that. tch,
And uhm, because, I mean, she couldn't do it day. see, it was a
Small town they only had one river, so. than she figured, oh
getting late, better get home cause her mamma would be worried
And would her if she was late for supper you know. so, I mean,
She gets up and she starts walking around and she bumps in to
This guy, and what do you know, he out to be an optometrist.
And just to happen to have her "suscription". so, anyway, uh?
Oh, I'm "subscription".so anyway, I mean, she's I don't want
You to think that this is one of those hollywood-like she
Gets the glasses and sees ever after. I mean, this is, you
Know, no that. I mean she had to pay for the glasses just like
You and me, she ... well, oh well, I mean, I don't you to think
That I'm but she did get about a dollar fifty off, dollar
Sixty-five? so anyway, uhm... this guy (oh) turned out to be
and he even told her where she could find another river.
So, I'll tell you the truth, this girl was a creep. I mean,
You know who wanna sing a song about her? I mean, her sister
Was much nicer. and uhm, I mean, i, I think she came from
A family.

Call me a
me a schlemiel
Call me a with a missing wheel
Call me what you
But nonetheless I'm
In with harold mingert
It's not he has a car
fleisher has a car
And a car is a car
But if harold didn't a car too his name
I guess I'd love him the same
me what you will
But I'm still
In love with mingert
And it's not he has a wealthy family
fleischer has a wealthy family
But money isn't
And if harold didn't a car too his name
I I'd love him just the same
But sometimes I ask why than
Do I than love mingert
Harold isn't handsome or clever or
And I find romance and a dance in his heart
The answers I can think about
Harold money and harold mingert's car
Call me what you
But non the less I'm
In love with mingert
arnie fleisher!
