Luyện nghe bài hát It's A Hard Life Wherever You Go/Abraham Martin

(Nancy Griffith)

I am a backseat driver america
They drive to the on falls road
And the man at the wheels is Shamus
We pass a the on a corner he knows.

And shamus says now chance has that kid got
And I say from the back I don't
He says there's barbed at all of these exits
There ain't no place in for that kid to go.

And it's a hard life, a hard life
a very hard life, it's a hard life wherever you go
And we our children with hatred
And the hard life is all they know.

--- ---

At the dairyline in
A fat man in of me
He's calling black people trash to his
the only trash here I see.

And I'm thinking this man a white hood
In the night when his children sleep
But slip to their windows and see him
They'll think that white all they need.

And a hard life, it's a hard life
It's a very hard life, it's a life wherever you go
And we our children with hatred
And the hard is all that they know.

--- ---

I was a child of the
When dreams could be held through
With Disney and and Martin Luther
And I belived, I believed, I believed.

Now I'm a backseat driver from
And I'm not at the of control
And I am guilty, I am worn, I am the of all evil
And I drive on the left side of the road.

And it's a life, it's a hard life
a very hard life, it's a hard life wherever you go
And we poison our with hatred
And the life is all that they know.

And there no place in this world for these kids to go
it's a hard life wherever you go...

Abraham, and John
(Richard Holler)

Has anybody seen my old friend Abraham
Can you tell me he's gone
He freed a people but it seems the good die young
I just around and he's gone.

Has anybody here my old friend Martin
Can you tell me where he's
He freed a lotta but it seems the good die young
I just around and he's gone.

Has anybody here seen my old John
Can you tell me he's gone
He freed a people but it seems the good die young
I just looked and he's gone.

you love the things they stood for
Didn't they try to find good
In you and me and be free
Someday soon it's be one day.

Has anybody here seen my old Bobby
can you tell me where he's
I thought I saw him up over the hill
With Abraham and and John...
