Luyện nghe bài hát The Ballad Of Mr. Jenkins

With skin as tough as a burlap
He had his second attack
Last but hes still goin

a melancholy in his eyes
For all of you who care
To why, well, let me tell you

It all started in 1957
When ole Walt took him by surprise
the day Old Yeller died

Well, that twelve year old a man
Eleven years too soon in
his best friend Tommy

They were tough as and southern born
And awfully proud to that uniform
things got scary

On 4th, Tommy left for Heaven
The same year the world was by surprise
Thats the day Luther died

So you judge him you need to know
more to that old man than what you
See there on that with a Bourbon in his hand

You heard about his years
But leave now theres more to hear
That explain the pain in that old man

How quick forgot
About the war theyd lost
And life goes on, thats they tell ya

No ticker tape no why
Might have never seen the end of that
Of his life, if he hadnt met

They got married in December
No doubt it was the day of his life
Two days before John died

So before you judge him you need to
Theres more to that old man what you
See there on that barstool a bourbon in his hand

Now weve chapter two
I can see a change in you
Theres a lot of life in that old man

He hadnt had a drink in at a year
To the truth Im shocked hes here
But as as he wants em, Im gonna pour em

you came in I asked him why
He just raised his head and wiped his eyes
And he told me

Ive seen so in my life Ive never questioned
This time the Lord took me by surprise
Yesterday my Betty

skin as tough as a burlap sack
He had his heart attack
Last summer but hes still
