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 place when our concert tour was at the SeaTac Hilton?
guarantee ev'ry word's the Gospel truth
Got witnesses ta it, too,
'Cause we all toured a fella by the name a' Milton

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

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

He'd always in the nick a' time
A good five ahead a' flight time
like he'd been drug through a needle's eye
He'd stand there, stoned and about ta
On his Egg McMuffin an' his Coke
An' he'd throw all the tickets on the counter and say
"Check the bags and fly!"
"Well, whaddya mean, this is too much
"We only got forty-six a' freight!
"And if it don't go, who's gonna explain it to our fan in Tacoma?"

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

When the drinks served up yonder...

Well, we at th' other end
All the seemed to commence again
Though Milton had ordered three station wagons, a pickup and a limo
And though he'd phoned ahead to that Two
Cussin' an' fussin' an' turnin'
always end up with two Datsoons and a Pinto

Now Milton took all a' that in stride
on the floor, an' kicked an' cried
But we always up to him for hope and salvation
But sink to the bottom a' trav'lers hell
When he'd check us in a remote
And he'd the clerk by his shirt an' tie an' say
"Whaddya mean, reservacines?"

Milton's bolder...

He'd shut in room one-oh-four
Let nobody in he swept the floor
Adjusted the lampshade, aligned the TV, the faucet, called the promoter
"Well, whaddya mean the warmup show?
"You're puttin' me on! stars, ya know!
"And this the way we was treated last summer at Six Flags Over Dakota!
"Now we have a hunnert percent top billing,
"Two-thirds in advance, a' course, you silly!
"I'm sure we prefer a chauffered and two air-conditioned dressing 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 real friend a' mine
An' stuck together on down that line
But there was one or two points over which we just had to
takin'-your-clothes-off-an'-hangin'-from-a-cross-in-front-a'-the-Tri-County-Fairgrounds
Is not necessarily an that the crowd ain't gonna start throwin' tomatas
An' when ya arrive at for a five o'clock show
An' the stage ain't built an' there's no
About all ya could do is sit on yer butt an' cut
However, you give ol' Milton four strong bodies, a nine-foot grand, a beer and a
An' you just knew that show was gonna be ...outta

Bringing in the
in the bread...

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

What a we had in Milton...

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