Luyện nghe bài hát Texas Trilogy: Bosque County Romance

Mary Martin was a schoolgirl seventeen or so
When she married Billy Archer about fourteen ago
Not even out of high school folks said, It wouldn't
But when you up in the country you grow up mighty fast

They married in a hurry in before school was out
Folks said that she was pregnant "Just and you'll find out"
It came about that winter one gray morn
The first of more to come a baby boy was born

And is their game
And Archer is the name they give to the that they own
Well if the don't run dry and the newborn calves they don't die
Another year from Mary will have
Another year from Mary have flown

And now Billy kept cattle his daddy could afford
As bouncing across the cactus in a 1950 ford
But the cows sick and skinny and the weed was all that grew
But kept the place alive the only thing he knew

And Mary cooked the supper and scrubbed the clothes
And Mary busted horses and the baby's nose
And Mary and a shotgun kept the rattlesnakes
And how she kept on smiling no one ever say

And cattle is game
And Archer is the name they give to the acres they own
If the don't run dry and the newborn calves don't die
year from Mary will have flown
Another year from Mary will flown

Now the drought of '57 was a upon the land
No one in County could give Bill a helping hand
The ground was cracked and broken and the was out of gas
And cows can't feed on prickly pear instead of growing

Well the weather got the water and a snake took a child
And a in the old barn took the hay that Bill had piled
The mortgage got the money and the screw worm got the
The have come for Mary, she's waiting for them now

And cattle is their
And Archer is the name give to the acres that they own
If the Brazos don't run dry and the newborn they don't die
Another year from Mary will have
year from Mary will have flown

Six o'clock of a new day begin is heard in the small Texas town
Like a signal nowhere the people lived their
Then up and moving around
'Cause this began to fry and the to bake
On the store left the salvation out or you take
You open the windows and u on the fan
'Cause it's harder then hell when the sun hits the
