Luyện nghe bài hát Talking Hard Work

While we are on the subject of work
I just wanted to say you that, "I always was a man who likes work"
I was born working and I worked my way up by work
I ain't ever got no where, but I got by hard work

Work of the hardest kind I down and I been out
I been disgusted I been busted and I couldn't be
I my way up and I worked my way down
I drunk and I been sober, I been baptized and got hijacked
I been robbed for cash and I robbed on a credit

Worked my way in jail and I worked my way outta
Woke up a lot of mornin's, know where I was at
The hardest work I ever done was, when I was
To get myself a worried to help ease my worried mind

I'm gonna tell ya just how work I had to do
To get woman I was tellin' you about, I shook hands
ninety seven of her kinfolk and her blood relatives
And I done just the same with eighty six
Who's her friends and her neighbors

I seventy three babies and put dry pants
On thirty four of em', well as done this same thing several times
Well there are a lot of other things just like
I held one hundred twenty five wild
And put saddles and bridles on more that

some of the craziest and wildest teams in that whole country'
I rode fourteen loco to a stand still
And I let forty two hound dogs lick me all over times
I's bit by hungry dogs and I was chewed all to
My water moccasins and rattlesnakes on two river

I chopped and carried three hundred arm loads
Of stove wood, one hundred nine of coal
Carried a gallon of kerosene miles over the mountains
Got lost, lost a pair of shoes in a mud hole
And I chopped and weeded forty rows of short cotton

Thirteen acres of bad corn, I cut the sticker
Out of eleven back yards, all on of 'cause
I wanted to her that I was a man and I liked to work
I cleaned out nine barn lofts, cranked one cars
All makes and models, three cars out of mud holes
And four or out of snow drifts

I dug five cisterns of for some of her friends
Run all kinds of errands, played the for nine
Church I Joined eleven separate denominations
I joined up and signed up with seven trade unions
I could find, I my wages, a, dues six months in advance

I waded forty eight miles of and six big rivers
Walked across two ranges of
Crossed three deserts, I got the fever, sun stroke, Malaria,
Moonstruck, skeeter bit, poison ivy and the seven itch
And the blind staggers, I was give up for less, and dead

A of times struck by lightning, struck by Congress
Struck by friends and kinfolks eell as by cars on highways
A lot of times in people's hen houses, I hit and run down
Run over and walked on knocked around, I'm just sittin'
Now tryin' to study up else I can do to show that women
I still ain't afraid of hard work
