Luyện nghe bài hát Red Dirt Girl ( Emmylou Harris )

Me and my friend Lillian
And her tick hound dog Gideon,
Sittin on the front porch in the shade
Singin every song the radio
Waitin for the Alabama sun to go
Two red girls in a red dirt town
Me and
across the line and a little southeast of Meridian.

She loved her brother I back when
He was fixin up a '49
He told her 'Little sister, ride the wind
Up around the moon and again"
He never got than Vietnam,
I was standin there with her when the telegram
For Lillian.
Now he's lyin somewhere about a million from Meridian.

She said not much hope for a red dirt girl
Somewhere out there is a great big
Thats I'm bound
And the stars fall on Alabama
But one of these days I'm swing
My down
Away from this red dirt
I'm gonna a joyful sound

She grew up and she grew up thin
Buried old dog Gideon
By a myrtle bush in the back of the yard,
Her daddy mean and her mama leaned hard
Got in trouble a boy from town
Figured that she might as well settle
So she dug in
Across a red dirt line just a south east from Meridian

She tried to love him but it never did take
It was just way for the heart to break
So she dug in.
But one thing they tell you about the blues
you got em
You keep on falling cause there ain't no
There ain't end.
At not for Lillian

Nobody knows she started her skid,
She was 27 and she had five kids.
Coulda' the whiskey,
been the pills,
Coulda been the she was trying to kill.
But won't be a mention in the news of the world
the life and the death of a red dirt girl
Names
Who never got any farther across the line Meridian.

Now the stars still on Alabama
Tonight she finally
That hammer
a sound
In the red dirt
