Luyện nghe bài hát New York 1963/America 1968

And I got to America, I say it blew my mind
And when I got to America, I say it my mind

The Apollo on a 125th street,
the was closed, it was pouring rain,
I had a I'd go there again,
The taxi thought I was insane,

Brown girl the Bronx showed me her home,
We went by subway train
She took me time and time again
was our sweet song's name

And when I got to America, I say it my mind
And when I got to America, I say it blew my

The Negro was my and leader
His strange tasting ways...they me on
I tried my best to sound like him
he moves...he moves like lightning

Across the the news was flashed
The young leader was laid to rest
Another ending of a new
Others cried...some grinning

And when I got to America, I say it blew my
And when I got to America, I say it my mind

In Central Park the children were
the bars the tiger walked
Smiling young faces of many
young tongues were being talked
The garbage in the streets of the Village,
face of an unknown Bob Dylan
(do it again, man)
She was sixteen, young and so
The sudden violence of a killin'
(and here comes the Police as usual, eh, what are you now)

And when I got to America, I say it my mind
(and all ya people standing around here your hands in your pockets)

And I got to America, I say it blew my mind

What did you do in the
What did I do in the services? I was a fighter pilot. Yeah, that's right. But they didn't like me. They didn't want me. When I was sent overseas, the first thing they told me was: "um, we can't use you because we didn't for you"
I was trained. The government paid, the government spent over $250,000 to train me as a pilot, and then after I got overseas, a general sent his adjutant down to meet our group to say that we didn't send for you and we don't want you. That's right. This is the truth, I'm telling you the truth! This is straight life but, ah, somehow we go on... We go on because we would like to think there's hope. But that's a lie, there ain't no hope and that's the truth, the truth baby!
That's right when I know you out of the box. (laughter) Yeah, that's right! You know the town that I was born in, we didn't have no streets? It was all dirt roads, dirt roads and poor people, nobody had nothing. Matter of fact, we used to get together to have community meals. Somebody had cabbage, somebody else had some meat, somebody had some corn mean and we'd get together and we'd make a meal, have a community dinner. That was when we were lucky and then we'd play cards. We didn't have any signals 'cause we didn't need any. Nobody had any cars. That's right! And on the corner, on particular corners, there were accidents all the time. Most of the people who were hurt in the accidents died just because nobody came to pick them up. The ambulance never came. That's right, the ambulance never came. I've just seen many a man bleed to death, lying on the street...
There's got to be a change, there's got to be a change and there's enough people to do it! If they would get off their big fat you-know-what, and move! Because we don't have much time. There's enough people sayin', "Ain't it a shame? Ain't it a shame? Ain't it a shame?" around. Good people, oh yeah! They all regard themselves as good people and they are full of "ain't it a shame's". And why don't people, why can't they see and why don't everybody do this and why don't everybody do that?
But if they, it's time for them to make a move, gets hands outta your pockets and go to work. Do something! Otherwise gonna be nothing to do (laughter) Yeah, and that's funny!
End of

Oh, on...
Wanna be free babe, be free
I made up my mind, that's where I be
That's all I wanna do, to be free, to be

To smile at on the street

I wanna be of all this, I wanna be outta here
(You'll never be this way)

An animal would do much to protect his young. And animal will fight to the death to his security and future life the way I have to live it.

It's altogether something that you would not understand. Nobody understands this because, take for instance Saturday night, Saturday night is a big, big experience

I think I can feel it, I I've got it, got to be free
(is it freedom?)
I give it to you....
