Luyện nghe bài hát Folk Monologue

Can I get my glass of tea? mmm, like it!
At this time I would like very much to do a folksong. folksongs,
I think are still popular today. uhm, this one is in and it's
From latvia. and about this tahitian girl who uhm, had this lover.
And one day this lover decides that he doesn't like her anymore
And likes her sister better. so she decided that the thing to do
Naturally was to kill herself, see. so one day, oh, was nice out
About 75 degrees, and she was this walk down to the river to
Drown when she, she tripped this rock see. and uhm, oh it was
Awful I mean, she broke her glasses, she her knees. and uhm,
Just at this minute the lover and the happen to come by in a
Taxicab. so, see they saw her on the floor and she, an
Astigmatism in her eye, she thought that it was a wild bore. so,
She figured oh boy I'd better get to the river fast to drown so
She runs down there and what do you know the was frozen. so i
Mean she just there you know and she went 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
It's getting late, better get home cause her mamma would be
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 do you know, he turns out to be an optometrist.
And just happens to to have her "suscription". so, anyway, uh?
Oh, I'm sorry "subscription".so anyway, I mean, she's I don't
You to think that this is one of hollywood-like stories: she
Gets the and sees happily ever after. I mean, this is, you
Know, no like that. I mean she had to pay for the glasses like
You and me, she ... well, oh well, I mean, I don't you to think
I'm lying but she did get about a dollar fifty off, dollar
Sixty-five? so anyway, uhm... this guy (oh) out to be very
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 who would wanna sing a song about her? I mean, her sister
Was really nicer. and uhm, I mean, i, I think she came from
A family.

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