Luyện nghe bài hát Ode To Billie Joe

It was the third of June sleepy dusty Delta day
I was out cotton and my brother was a bailin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and walked out to the to eat
And hollered of the back door, "Y'all remember to wipe your feet"
Then she said, "I got some this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge
Today Joe Macallister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"

Papa to Mama as he passed around the blackeyed peas
"Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense, pass the biscuits,
There's five more acres in the lower forty that got to plow"
And Mama said, "It was shame about Joe, anyhow
Seems nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge
And now Joe Mac Allister's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"

Mama to me, "Child, what's happened to your appetite?
I've cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite
That nice preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today"
Said, he'd be to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way
He said, he saw a girl looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge
And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin' off the Bridge

A year has come and gone we heard the news 'bout Billy Joe
Brother married Becky Thompson, they bought a in Tupelo
There was a virus going 'round, Papa caught it and he died spring
Now Mama doesn't seem to wanna do of anything
And me, I a lot of time pickin' flowers up on Choctaw Ridge
And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie
