Luyện nghe bài hát John Brown

John Brown went off to war to fight on a foreign
His mama was proud of him
He stood so and tall in his uniform and all
His mama's broke out into a grin

"Oh, son, you look so fine, I'm glad a son of mine
Make me proud to you own a gun
Do what the says, lot of medals you will get
We'll put them on the wall you get home"

That old pulled out, John's ma began to shout
Tellin' in the neighborhood
"That's my son that's about to go, he's a now, you know"
She well sure her neighbors understood

She got a letter once in a while, her face into a smile
She showed to the people from next door
They bragged about her son his uniform and gun
And these things you called a old fashioned war

Then the letters ceased to come, for a time they did not come
Ceased to come for about ten or more
Then when letter finally came saying, "Go down and the train
son is coming back from the war"

She smiled and she right down, she looked up and all around
She did not see her son in sight
all the people passed, she saw her son at last
When she did she not believe her eyes

Oh, his was all shot up and his hand were blown away
And he wore a metal around his waist
He whispered kind of slow, in a voice she know
And she even recognize his face

"Oh, tell me, my darling son, tell me what they've
How is it you come to be this way?"
He tried his best to talk but his mouth could move
And his had to turn her face away

"Don't you remember, ma, when I off to war
You thought it was the thing I could do?
I was on the battleground, you home, acting proud
You weren't there standing in my

And I thought when I was there, Lord, what am I here?
Tryin' to somebody or die tryin'
But the that scared me most, when my enemy came close
I can see that his face looked like mine"

And I couldn't help but think, the thunder rolling and stink
I was just a in a play
And through the roar and smoke, string, it finally broke
And a ball blew my eyes away"

As he turned away to go, his was acting slow
Seein' the brace that helped him stand
But as he turned to leave, he called his close
And he dropped his medals down her hand
