Luyện nghe bài hát God Bless Robert E. Lee

When E. Lee surrendered the Confederacy
Jefferson Davis was upset it
He said, "How dare man rescind an order
From the President of the States of America"

Then somebody told him
Lee had made the decision himself
In to save lives because he felt that the battle comin' up
Would cost about thousand lives on both sides

And he said two hundred forty thousand dead is enough
So this song is not about the north or the
But about the brother war
Brother against brother, father son, the war that nobody won

And for all those lives that were
I say God bless Robert E. Lee
Well, the mansion the General used to live is burning down
Cotton fields are blue with Sherman's

I overheard a Yankee say Nashville fell
So I'm on my way to join the fight Lee might need my help
But away, look away, Dixie, I don't want them to see
What they're to my Dixie, God bless Robert E. Lee

Sherman's troops burned and the flames lit up the sky
And those of us who survived it are my Dixie die
But at Appomattox General Lee sat down
And surrendered to the and Ulysses S Grant

So look away, look Dixie
I won't ever loving you, my Dixie, till they put me in the ground
And the last words they
Hear from me are God Robert E. Lee
