Luyện nghe bài hát Streets Of New York

I was 18yrs old
I went down to with a fistful
Of and a cartload of dreams
"Take your time" said me
Stop like hell and remember all is not what it seems to be
For there's fellas would cut ye for the coat on yer back
or the that you got from your mother so take care me young bucko
And yourself well and will ya give this wee note to me brother

At the Uncle Benjy was a policeman in Brooklyn
And me father the youngest, looked after the
When a phonecall from America
the lad over'
And the oul fella 'Sure wouldn't do any harm' for I've spent me life working this dirty old ground
For a few pints of porter and the smell of a
sure there's something you'll learn or you'll see
And you can bring it back home it easy on me

So I landed at Kennedy and a big taxi
Carried me and me bags the streets and the rain
Well me poor heart was thumpin around with
And I hardly even heard what the driver was
We in the Shore Parkway to the faltlands of Brooklyn
To me Uncle's apartment on 53rd
I was feeling so I was humming a song and I sang "You're as free as a bird"

Well to the story what I found out that day was that Benjy was shot down in an uptown foray and while I was flying my way to New York
Poor Benjy was lying in a city morgue.
Well I phoned up the old fella him the news
I could he could
Hardly up in his shoes and he wept as he told me
'Go with the plans
And not to be a proud Irish man'

So I went to Nellies beside Fordham road and i started to learn about lifting the
But the heaviest thing that I carried year
Was the bittersweet thought of my so dear
I went home that December 'cause the oul fella
Had to the money from Phil on the side
And all the bright flowers and brass hide
The poor wasted face of me

I sold up the oul farmyard for it was worth and into my bag stuck
A handful of earth then I boarded a train and I me a plane
And I meself back in the US again
It's 22yrs since
set foot in Dublin
Me kids know to use the knife and fork
But I'll never forget the grass and the rivers
As I law and order in the streets of New York.
