Luyện nghe bài hát Mister Garfield

Me and my brother was close to the depot
When I heard the of a pistol
I hollered, "I what was that!"

He run out and back and he said
"That was a of a pistol"

And I I was gonna faint when he said it
"Mr. Garfield's been shot down, shot down, down
Mr. Garfield's been shot low"

Lord, I knew the President was supposed to be down the depot day
But I just wouldn't let myself believe that been shot

Me and my bother run out there and everybody was all
And hollering' and round
And I stepped up to this one lady and I said

"Ma'am what was it that happened Ma'am?", and she said that
"Mr. Garfield's been shot down, down, shot down
Mr. Garfield's shot down low"

Well, it looked like everybody felt just as bad as I did
started drift off to home
Me and my did too

Then a few weeks later, I heard that the President was alive
So I my brother, I said, "Hey let's get on a train
And go to that Big up there and see how the President is"

"Let's go up there to where he's laid up and sick we'd see him"
So we went on up and that big White House
And there was a soldier boy standin' round upside,

And, I up to him and I said to that soldier boy
I said "Who was it did it?
Who was it that the President?"
And he that, "It was Charlie Guiteau that shot Mr. Garfield"

And I said, "Charlie Guiteau done shot a good man, good man
Charlie Guiteau done shot a good man low
Charlie Guiteau done down a good man, good man"

soldier boy said that
Miss Lucretia Garfield was always at his
In the of the day fannin' him when he was hot

And he said just that that he had been at the window
And he'd Miss Lucretia and Mr. Garfield talkin'
And Mr Garfield said, "Crete, honey", he called her

He said, "Crete, honey, if somethin' worse happens to me"
He said, "You get a good man"
And she said, "Now James", she called him

She said, "James, I hear to that now
I love you too much"

And he said that "You'll make some good man a wife, good wife
You'll make some man a good gal
Don't pull in harness all your life, good gal
Don't pull in single all your life"

That's what he said, "Don't pull in harness all your life"

Well a little while later, we come back there
And things changed
The flag was hangin' up the flagpole

And was cryin' and standin' 'round sad
And I walked back up to this soldier boy and I
"Soldier boy, is he, is Mr Garfield?" and he said, "Yeah, gone"

Gonna lay him by that lonesome branch down low
Mr. been shot down low
Oh, Mr. Garfield's shot down, shot down, shot down
Mr. Garfield's been down low

you heard the news?
Mr. been shot down, shot down, shot down
Mr. been shot down low, Lord
