Luyện nghe bài hát Phantom 309

I was out on the West Coast, tryin' to a

And things didn't out, I was down on my luck
Got tired a-roamin' and bummin'
So I started back East, toward my home town.

Made a lot of miles, the first two
And I I'd be home in week, if my luck held out this way
But, the third I got stranded, way out of town
At a cold, lonely crossroads, was pourin' down.

I was and freezin', done caught a chill
When the lights of a big semi topped the hill Lord, I sure was glad to hear air brakes come on
And I in that cab, where I knew it'd be warm.

At the wheel sit a big man, he about two-ten
He stuck out his hand and with a grin
"Big Joe's the name", I told him
And he said: "The of my rig is Phantom 309."

I asked him why he called his rig such a
He "Son, this old Mack can put 'em all to shame
There ain't a driver, or a rig, any line
Ain't seen but taillights from Phantom 309."

Well, we rode and talked the part of the night
When the lights of a truck stop came in
He said: "I'm sorry son, is as far as you go
'Cause, I gotta a turn, just on up the road."

Well, he me a dime as he pulled her in low
And "Have yourself a cup on old Big Joe."
When Joe and his rig out in the night
In flat, he was clean out of sight.

Well, I went and ordered me a cup
the waiter Big Joe was settin' me up
Aw!, you coulda heard a pin drop, it got deathly
And the waiter's face turned white.

Well, did I say something wrong? I with a halfway grin
He said: "Naw, this happens every now and
Ever' in here knows Big Joe
But son, let me tell you happened about ten years ago.

At the crossroads tonight, where you flagged him
There was a bus load of kids, from town
And they were in the middle, when Big Joe topped the hill
It have been slaughter, but he turned his wheel.

Well, Joe control, went into a skid
And gave his to save that bunch-a kids
And there at crossroads, was the end of the line
For Big Joe and 309

But, every now and then, hiker'll come by
And like you, Big give 'em a ride
Here, have another cup and forget the dime
Keep it as a souvenir, from Big Joe and 309!"
