Luyện nghe bài hát Forefathers

They came Scandinavia
The of midnight sun
And crossed the Atlantic
this century was young
They'd heard that in
man was free
To live the way he chose to
And be who he be.
Some of them were farmers
And tilled the soil
But all got was poverty
For all their earnest
say one was a sailor
Who the wide world round
Made port--got drunk one night
off the pier and drowned.
My mother was of blood
It's there she was born
They brought her to in 1924
They left the highlands
And the heather hills
And to find America
With broad, expectant
And wills.
My grandad the steel mills
Of Illinois
His daughter was his
His son was his boy
For thirty years he worked the
And the coke-fed fires
And looked the day
he'd at last turn 65
And retire.

And the become the fathers
And the daughters be wives
As the is passed from hand to hand
And we through our lives
the generations wander
The survives
And all of us
From dust to
We all forefathers
By and by.
The woman and the man wed
Just the war
And they in this river town
And three fine she bore
One became a
And one fine pictures
And one became this soul
Who sits now
And this song to you.
(Repeat chorus)
