Luyện nghe bài hát John Brown

John Brown off to war to fight on a foreign shore
His mama sure was of him
He stood so straight and tall in his and all
His mama's face broke out a grin

"Oh, son, you so fine, I'm glad you're a son of mine
Make me to know you own a gun
Do what the captain says, lot of you will get
put them on the wall when you get home"

That old train out, John's ma began to shout
Tellin' ev'ryone in the
"That's my son about to go, he's a soldier now, you know"
She made well her neighbors understood

She got a letter once in a while, her broke into a smile
She showed them to the people from next
They bragged about her son with his and gun
And things you called a good old fashioned war

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

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

Oh, his was all shot up and his hand were blown away
And he wore a brace around his waist
He kind of slow, in a voice she didn't know
And she couldn't even recognize his

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

"Don't you remember, ma, I went off to war
You it was the best thing I could do?
I was on the battleground, you were home, acting
You weren't standing in my shoes

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

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

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