Luyện nghe bài hát Road Goes on Forever

Robert Keen
Sherry was a waitress at the joint in town.
She had a reputation as a who'd been around.
On Main street after midnight, a new pack of cig's,
a one hanging from her lips, a beer between her legs.
She rides to the river, and meets with all her friends.
The road goes on and the party never ends.

Sonny was a loner, older the rest.
He was goin' in the Navy, but pass the test.
So he around town, he sold a little pot.
The law wind of Sonny and one day he got caught.
But he was in business when they set him free again.
The road on forever and the party never ends.

Sonny's playin' eight-ball in the where Sherry works
when some drunken put his hand up Sherry's skirt.
Sonny his pool cue, laid the drunk out on the floor.
a dollar in her tip jar, walked out the door.
She's running behind him, reaching for his hand.
The road goes on forever and the party ends.

They into his pickup, Sonny jammed it down in gear.
looked at Sherry, said Let's get on out of here.
The stars were high above them, the was in the east.
The sun was setting on them when reached Miami Beach.
They got a by the water, a quart of Bombay Gin.
The road goes on forever and the never ends.

They ran out of money but, Sonny knew a man,
who knew some refugees, who dealt in contraband.
Sonny met the Cubans in a just off the route,
a briefcase full of money and a pistol in his boot.
The card were on the table when the law came in.
The road goes on forever and the party ends.

The grabbed the goodies, Sonny grabbed the jack
Broke the bathroom and climbed on out the back.
drove the pickup through the alley on the side,
where a tackled Sonny and was reading him his rights.
She stepped out in the alley with a single four-ten
The road goes on forever and the party ends.

They the lawman dying they made their getaway.
Got back to the motel before the break of day.
Sonny gave her all the money, he blew a kiss.
If they ask you how this happened say I you into this.
She watched him as his taillights around the bend.
The road goes on forever and the never ends.

Its main street midnight, just like it was before,
months later, at the local grocery store.
Sherry a paper and a cold six-pack of beer.
The headlines say Sonny is going to the chair.
She pulls back Main Street in her new Mercedes Benz.
The goes on forever and the party never ends.
