Luyện nghe bài hát Manny's Hat Song

Jerry Jeff

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

Manny liked to and share a good story or two
If a making you a hat, he needs to know some things about you
He'd say, "Set yourself down, tell us you're thinking about
Your hat says something about you, before you even open 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 to sit up front and greet folks
Take their and laugh at their jokes

You couldn't by without staying there all afternoon
His wife 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 then he made for a friend
He made 'em the old way, steamed, and creased 'em by
He'd take your old hat and her brand new
He'd it any way you wanted him too
He'd fix it up with a porcupine-beaded hatband

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

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

Old used to take me aside,
say Jerry Jeff you know how to write
Why you make up a hat song and do it just the way that you do
now that old Manny has gone,
I finally made him up hat song
it's the best way to keep your old friend alive in a room

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