Luyện nghe bài hát John Brown

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

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

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

She got a once in a while, her face broke into a smile
She them to the people from next door
They bragged about her son his uniform 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 for about ten months or more
Then when letter finally saying, "Go down and meet the train
Your son is coming from the war"

She smiled and she went 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 could not believe her

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

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

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

And I thought when I was there, Lord, what am I here?
to kill somebody or die tryin'
But the that scared 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 and stink
I was just a puppet in a
And through the roar and smoke, string, it finally broke
And a cannon ball blew my away"

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