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 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 share a good or two
If he's a making you a hat, he to know some things about you
He'd say, "Set yourself down, tell us what you're about
Your hat says something you, before you even open your mouth"

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

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

He made hats for a lot of men
But were finer then he made for a friend
He 'em the old way, steamed, and creased 'em by hand
take your old hat and make her brand new
He'd it any way you wanted him too
He'd fix it up with a porcupine-beaded hatband

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

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

Old Manny used to 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
Well now old Manny has gone,
I finally made him up hat song
'Cause it's the way to keep your old friend alive 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
