Luyện nghe bài hát Ode To Billy Joe

It was the 3rd of June, sleepy dusty Delta day.
I was out cotton and my brother was bailin' hay.
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the to eat.
And mama out the backdoor, "Y'all remember to wipe your feet."
And then she said, "I got some this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge.
Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Tallahatchee Bridge."

Papa said to mama as he passed around the peas,
"Well, Billy Joe had a lick of sense; pass the biscuits please.
There's 5 more acres in the 40 I got to plow."
And mama said it was a about Billy Joe anyhow.
Seems like ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge,
and now Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Bridge.

And brother said he recollected when he and Tom and Joe
put a frog my back at the Carroll County picture show.
And I talkin' to him after church last Sunday night?
"I'll have piece of apple pie; you know it don't seem right.
I saw him at the sawmill on Choctaw Ridge
and now you tell me Billy Joe's off the Tallahatchee Bridge."

And mama to me, "Child what's happened to your appetite?
I been cookin' all and you havent touched a single bite.
That nice young preacher brother Taylor by today,
he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday; oh by the way,
he said he saw a girl that a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge,
and she and Billy Joe was throwin' off the Tallahatchee Bridge."
