Luyện nghe bài hát Jack Slim

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

the groves and tupelos
From boy to man did our Jack
He faltered, sinned, or hoed
Or lived but

He grew up and grew up strong
An honest man, knew right wrong
He fields and studied long
How proud we of he

To but one he did go
And there's the with seeds to sow
A poisoned soul that know
The bane was on he

Her eyes were black, as was her
And in the light, just there
She caught Jack's eye without a
Jack Slim, the to be

Now the bells of bronze and steel
Ringing out the coming
Of a man I'd rather
see suffer endlessly

Into the home of Jack she
Her and kin, drunk and insane
The just damn near everything
To stay for good was their aim

wife's bed always hot
All the town did their shot
The team, the team's mascot
All comers came and a lot

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

One foul day, our Jack snapped
And the sorry bums and that
Out his without a chat
To the road by the sea

The wife, she didn't take this
him to go to straight to hell
An evil man with a sulfur
Oh hate old did she

She took boy and ran away
To a slick-haired who was the man
To lay the blame and and a hand
To the by the sea

the judge old Jack stood
Staring down, no good
Could come from who harbor hate
For an man as he

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

Now Jack lives inside a
No money for food or rent
The man's already spent
Johnny Law at bay

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

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

He once. He hammered twice
Let out a scream that nice
The tooth was stuck like in ice
And just where it was

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

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

He placed the gun 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 down by the sea

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

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

He waved the gun and out we
I'll surely die, this earth sent
I to myself
I to me

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

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

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

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

Mother, invite me home
Your son's tired, no to roam
Any way away thee
Away thee

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

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

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

And aimed my for harbor close
But up I saw the coast
And Jack's by the sea
house down by the sea
