Luyện nghe bài hát Jack Slim

Meet Jack Slim, a man
Who'll do the best he can
An upright guy, always stand
In his home by the sea

Amongst the and tupelos
boy to man did our Jack grow
He never faltered, sinned, or
Or but righteously

He grew up tall and up strong
An honest man, knew from wrong
He tended fields and studied
How we were of he

To but one he did go
And there's the Devil seeds to sow
A poisoned soul didn't know
The that was on he

Her eyes black, as was her hair
And in the light, just standing
She Jack's eye without a care
Slim, the fool to be

Now hear the bells of and steel
Ringing out the ills
Of a man I'd kill
Than see endlessly

the home of Jack she came
Her kith and kin, drunk and
The just damn near everything
To stay for was their true aim

wife's bed always hot
All the did have their shot
The football team, the team's
All came and came a lot

Jack walked round with grinding
To yell or or cry beneath
His pride and courtesy
hard and frequently

One foul day, our just snapped
And kicked the sorry bums and
Out his door a chat
To the road by the sea

The wife, she didn't take well
Told him to go to to hell
An evil man a sulfur smell
Oh old Jack did she

She their boy and ran away
To a shark who was the man
To lay the blame and lend and a
To the by the sea

Opposite the old Jack stood
down, knowing no good
Could from souls who harbor hate
For an man as he

He lost his house. He his heart
Lost all he earned or cared
His boy was and he was out
Of luck or love or

Now lives inside a tent
No money left for or rent
The homeless man's already
Keeping Law at bay

One day woke with an aching head
His gums his face was red
He wept a and then said, I think this will kill me

No for a doctor's trip
Jack took an awl and the tip
Against his rotting tooth, his tooth

He hammered once. He twice
Let out a scream wasn't nice
The tooth was like dirt in ice
And stayed where it was

So town stumbled our Jack
He found a gun inside a
In the car parked way out back
the country club

He took gun and stole a knife
Intent on taking his own
To put an end to all his
And die just

He the gun against his head
Thinking he would soon be
As would his

He the gun
But the gun
The shattered and the bullet broke
What a and sad unlucky bloke
In his cave by the sea

So finally Jack a plan
And the gun inside his hand
Approached my boat like a man
Who was out to sea
out to sea

From the dock, and rocks
A few large chains and extra
Heavy I've not forgot
And a made of iron

He the gun and out we went
surely die, from this earth sent
I said to
I to me

Old man, I mean you no
Please fear, don't be alarmed
Your I'll spare despite my arms
Back you soon will be

Further out we and went
Past the and all the scents
Of and liberty
And

Into the bucket Jack's feet
The concrete followed and I
That death that day wasn't for me

Around his waist he the rocks
Secured them tight with all the
And then he ordered I stop
And turned his to me

Mother, please invite me
Your son's tired, no wish to
Any way from thee
Away thee

Without word Jack dived
But soon righted to upward
From the concrete at his

The bubbles, they stopped enough
And I could breath when could not
As he into the sea
the sea

Now he rests far down
One thousand fathoms or so
fish for company, for company
I and saw a storm approach

And my girl for harbor close
But glancing up I saw the
And house by the sea
Jack's house by the sea
