Luyện nghe bài hát Manny's Hat Song

Jerry Jeff

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

Manny to laugh and share 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, us what you're thinking about
hat says something about you, before you even open your mouth"

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

You couldn't stop by without staying there all
His Norma she sat in the back,
sweatbands in all of his hats
She listened to the radio, times I'd sing her a tune

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

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

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

Old Manny used to me aside,
He'd say Jerry you know how to write
Why you make up a hat song 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 way to keep your old friend alive in a room

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