Luyện nghe bài hát Milton

Now, I'll tell ya a that'll bust yer heart
That a few people knew, ta start
It all took when our concert tour was booked at the SeaTac Hilton?
I'll guarantee word's the Gospel truth
Got witnesses ta it, too,
'Cause we all toured with a by the name a' Milton

Now Milton was tour director,
Electrical plug connector
An' the slave-drivin'-est conductor
That we ever in our lives
He'd say "Whaddya mean, ya need more
"The world care whether ya look yer best!
"Simply up promptly at six A.M. with your instruments ...and your wives!"

[Choir; in sorta of "Bringing In The Sheaves"
Shall we at the airport?

He'd always arrive in the a' time
A good five minutes ahead a' time
like he'd been drug through a needle's eye
He'd stand there, and about ta choke
On his Egg an' his giant Coke
An' then he'd throw all the on the counter and say
"Check the and let's fly!"
"Well, whaddya mean, this is too weight?
"We got forty-six pieces a' freight!
"And if it don't go, gonna explain it to our fan club in Tacoma?"

We'd all get an' head for the plane
Milton stood there, bein' profane
But somehow he managed ta get on board ...in sort of a coma

When the were served up yonder...

Well, we deplaned at th' end
All the trouble seemed to commence
Though Milton had ordered three station wagons, a truck and a limo
And though he'd ahead to that Number Two
Cussin' an' an' turnin' blue
We'd end up with two Datsoons and a Pinto

Now Milton all a' that stuff in stride
Laid on the floor, an' an' cried
But we always looked up to him for hope and
But we'd sink to the bottom a' trav'lers
When he'd us in a remote motel
And he'd grab the clerk by his an' tie an' say
"Whaddya mean, reservacines?"

Milton's bolder...

He'd shut himself in room
Let nobody in he swept the floor
Adjusted the lampshade, aligned the TV, fixed the faucet, called the
"Well, whaddya we're the warmup show?
"You're me on! We're stars, ya know!
"And this the way we was treated last summer at Six Flags Over Dakota!
"Now we gotta have a hunnert top billing,
"Two-thirds in advance, a' course, you silly!
"I'm sure we prefer a chauffered limosine and two air-conditioned rooms, please.
"I'm what? Well, so's your wife! not? Well, to each his own.
"Beg pardon, it in my what? Well, really, Merle who?"

William Morris, us working...

Now, Milton was a good friend a' mine
An' stuck together on down that line
But there was one or two points which we just had to dee-bate
Like
Is not necessarily an that the crowd ain't gonna start throwin' tomatas
An' ya arrive at four for a five o'clock show
An' the stage ain't built an' no electricity
About all ya could do is sit on yer an' cut bait
However, you ol' Milton four strong bodies, a nine-foot grand, a beer and a cigarette
An' you just knew that was gonna be ...outta state

Bringing in the
in the bread...

Now one night up there in
We get paid for a show we'd done
An' poor ol' couldn't live with that; his brain just shorted out.
Well, he locked himself in the
An' then he didn't come out for an hour an' a half
We figgered that somethin' was wrong, but we had to remove all
We stood transfixed in shock and
When we down that there bathroom door
And I I never see a sight like that again; no, I don't
was nothin' to do but close our eyes, an' bow our heads, an' vocalize
With a silent five-part hymn, for him

What a we had in Milton...

Now gettin' ready, come next December
To put concert tour together
And I'm sad to say ol' Milton ain't a-gonna be us
No, it ain't be exactly the same
When they us without his name
So Milton, wherever you are, we hope you us!
See, Milton has on down the road
the rainbow, lookin' for gold
Yeah, he's up there where the stage is always on
But we can't forget that curly
When last we saw him a-settin'
Holdin' his tambourine, suckin' his thumb, an' sound asleep on the
