Luyện nghe bài hát Jack Slim

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

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

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

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

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

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

Into the home of she came
Her kith and kin, drunk and
The broke damn near everything
To stay for good was true aim

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

Jack round with grinding teeth
To yell or scream or cry
His subtle pride and
Tested hard and

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

The wife, she take this well
him to go to straight to hell
An evil man with a sulfur
Oh old Jack did she

She took boy and ran away
To a slick-haired who was the man
To lay the blame and lend and a
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 lost his house. He lost his
Lost all he or cared about
His boy was and he was out
Of luck or love or

Now Jack lives a tent
No money left for or rent
The homeless already spent
Keeping Law at bay

One day Jack with an aching head
His gums bled; his was red
He wept a little and said, I think this will kill me

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

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

So into town stumbled our
He a gun inside a sack
In the sheriff's car way out back
Behind the country

He took that gun and 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 soon be dead
As would his

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

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

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

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

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

out we went and went
Past the buoys and all the
Of life and
And

Into the Jack's feet went
The concrete and I sensed
That that day wasn't meant for me

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

Mother, please me home
Your tired, no wish to roam
Any way away thee
Away from

Without another word Jack
But soon righted to side
From the concrete at his

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

Now he far down below
One fathoms deep or so
With for company, for company
I looked and saw a storm

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