Luyện nghe bài hát Forefathers

They came from
The land of sun
And crossed the Atlantic
When this century was
They'd heard that in
man was free
To the way he chose to live
And be who he be.
Some of them were there
And tilled the soil
But all they got was
For all their toil
say one was a sailor
Who sailed the world round
Made home port--got one night
Walked off the and drowned.
My mother was of Scottish
there that she was born
They her to America in 1924
They left the highlands
And the covered hills
And came to find
With broad, dreams
And wills.
My grandad worked the steel
Of Illinois
His daughter was his
His son was his boy
For thirty he worked the mills
And the coke-fed fires
And toward the day
he'd at last turn 65
And retire.

And the sons become the
And the will be wives
As the torch is from hand to hand
And we through our lives
the generations wander
The lineage
And all of us
dust to dust
We all become
By and by.
The woman and the man wed
Just the war
And they settled in river town
And three sons she bore
One a lawyer
And one fine drew
And one became this lonely
Who here now
And this song to you.
(Repeat chorus)
