Luyện nghe bài hát Ode To Billie Joe

It was the of June, another sleepy dusty Delta day
I was out choppin' and my brother was bailin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and back to the house to eat
And hollered at the backdoor, "You all remember to wipe your feet"

And she said, "I got some news this morning from Choctaw Wridge
Today Billie Joe jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
said to mama as he passed around the black eyed peas
"Billie Joe never had a lick of sense, the biscuits please"

"There's five more in the lower forty I got to plow"
And mama said, "It was a shame Billie Joe anyhow
Seems like nothing ever comes to no good upon Choctaw
Now Billie Joe Macallister off the Tallahatchie Bridge"

Brother he recollected when he and Tom and Billie Joe
Put a frog down my back at the Caroll County show
And wasn't I talkin' to him after church Sunday night?
I'll have another piece of pie, you know it just don't seem right

I saw him at yesterday on Choctaw Wridge
Now you tell me Billie Joe's jumped off the Tallahatchie
Mama said to me, "Child what's to your appetite?"
I've been cooking all morning and you touched a single bite

And nice young brother Tailor dropped by today
Said be pleased to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way
Said he saw a girl that a lot like you upon Choctaw Wridge
She and Billie Joe was throwin' something off the Bridge

Year's come and gone since we heard the about Billie Joe
Brother married Becky Thompson and they bought a in Tupelo
There was a virus goin' 'round, papa caught it and he last spring
Now mama doesn't seem to want to do of anything

And me I spent a lot of time pickin' flowers upon Choctaw
And dropped 'em into the muddy off the Tallahatchie Bridge
