Luyện nghe bài hát Hudsonville MI 1956

There are bridges over
are moments of collapse
There are drivers their feet on the glass
You can but you can't get out
There is history in the rooms of the

dinner do the dishes
Mother
The coffee maker on the stove
The steam a
The radio bulletins and
Everywhere

You the train down to
Haute, Indiana
Visit family, your home
your mother her grandkid and father a kiss
Put your luggage in your bedroom, in the sit

With husband still up in Hudsonville
Until the weekend his shift ends at the furniture mill
water for the dishes and the coffee on the stove
Heard a from the corner on the radio
And the starts to rattle in the window frames

So you went
Took the down
To the cellar full of equipment
Held baby in your arms
Read the labels on mason
Tried not to think your husband in Michigan

Stay
the radio loud
Take
Wind
Father piles blankets in the by the furnace
Mother candles
a miracle the baby doesn't cry

Back home, yard work outside
Husband stubborn under dark skies
Saw the fence by the neighbor's shed
Saw the kitchen start to bend in

So you went down to the back steps to the basement
There bookshelf plans on the workbench
And a flashlight shining all night
Try not to think your son and your wife
And the that scattered the night sky
And the wind that tore up the power lines
At the in the basement
Where you sat and tried to wait out the

You called for three days
Still with your family back
Up in Hudsonville the worst of the storms touched
And the phone lines down
the radio up

There's a woman who got thrown from her car into a barbed fence
She was six pregnant
her and the baby lived
You but the line or...

I remember those
I couldn't get through to you when storms came rattled the window panes
Couldn't keep a thing the same way when the storm blew in and the furniture
I can see lightning there and a funnel
And her said,
"I swear I saw in your eyes
When that call got to the other side."

Stay
Keep the radio
down
There are bridges over
in the distant
Wind
down

After dinner do the
Mother
Wires
Metal gets
There's the of the window glass
in
Take the children
Terre


Stay
down
At the

And the coffee hisses
calm
Keep
the radio
are
There are of collapse
