Luyện nghe bài hát Manny's Hat Song

Jerry Jeff

Manny was a maker of hats, Manny was much than that
He was the kind of guy, you and I would for a friend
Manny was a regular guy, an old soul look in his eye
He was a man of word, and true to to the end

Manny liked to laugh and a good story or two
If he's a making you a hat, he needs to know things about you
He'd say, "Set yourself down, tell us what you're thinking
Your hat says something about you, before you open your mouth"

Manny had a hat shop, south of town where everyone stopped
To sit and chat, get a hat, and get a new attitude
He loved to sit up and greet folks
Take their measurements and at their jokes

You stop by without staying there all afternoon
His Norma she sat in the back,
Sewing sweatbands in all of his
She listened to the radio, some I'd sing her a tune

He made hats for a lot of men
But none were finer then he made for a
He 'em the old way, steamed, and creased 'em by hand
take your old hat and make her brand new
He'd shape it any way you him too
fix it up fine with a porcupine-beaded hatband

You know his hats were worn all the world
By real cowboy, women's and
He even one for me he jokingly called "the old friend"

Well when old friends disappear, I sometimes where
I'd like to think maybe just somewhere round the bend
But Manny's in heaven I bet, I'll go you one yet
bet money John B. and Manny are talking God into a hat

Old used to take me aside,
He'd say Jerry Jeff you know how to
Why don't you make up a hat and do it just the way that you do
Well now that old has gone,
I finally him up Manny's hat song
'Cause it's the best way to keep your old friend in a room

Manny was a maker of hats, Manny was much more that
He was the of guy, you and I would want for a friend
