Luyện nghe bài hát South Coast

by Lillian Bos Ross, Sam Eskin, Richard Dehr & Miller
(Arlo's version is from the singing of Jack Elliott)

My name is Juanano de
My father was a Spanish
But I won my in a card game
To hell with lords o'er the sea

Well the South Coast is coast and lonely
You win in a game at Jolon
But a lion still rules the
And a man is always alone

in my youth i had a Monterey
fields,creeks,mountains all
and i built me a little shanty
and i it and floored it with pine

i had a bronco,buckskin,
like a bird he flew over the
when we'd out 40 miles every friday
for some and to pick up my mail

I sat in a card at Jolon
I played there an outlaw named Juan
And after I'd his money
I staked all against his daughter

I up the ace...l had won her
My it was down at my feet
up to my throat in a hurry
Like a young day she was sweet

He opened the to the kitchen
And he called the in with a curse
Saying "Take her, ya, you've won her
She's now for better or worse"

Her had to tighten around me
As we rode down the to the south
Not a did I hear from her that day
Nor a from her pretty red mouth

well we soon the valley of twilight
and the stars twinkled out over the
she loved the valley and the orchards
but i it was me she loved the most

That was a gay happy
We on a cradle of pine
By the fire in that little cabin
And I sang that gay wife of mine

That night I got hurt in a
hip and twice broken bone
She saddled her pony lightning
And rode off for the doctor in

The lion screamed in the
Buck, he bolted and he on the slide
My young wife lay dead in the
My heart died that night with my

they buried her out in the
carried me up to
now i'm left with these
i'm an old broken man all

the still stands on the hillside
the open to the rain
and i'm up here in Jolon
and i never can go back again
