Luyện nghe bài hát Texas Trilogy: Bosque County Romance

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

They married in a hurry in March school was out
Folks said that she was pregnant "Just wait and find out"
It came about that winter one gray November
The first of many to come a baby boy was born

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

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

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

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

Now the drought of '57 was a upon the land
No one in Bosque County 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 got the water and a snake bite took a child
And a fire in the old barn took the hay that had piled
The mortgage got the and the screw worm got the cows
The years have come for Mary, she's waiting for now

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

Six o'clock silence of a new day begin is heard in the small town
Like a signal nowhere the people lived their
up and down moving around
'Cause this began to fry and the to bake
On the store left the out or you won't take
You open the and u turn on the fan
it's harder then hell when the sun hits the ground
