Luyện nghe bài hát The Biggest Ball Of Twine In Minnesota

Well, I had two weeks of vacation time
After working all year down at 'Big Roy's And Plumbing'
So one night when my family and I gathered 'round the dinner table
I said, "Kids, if you go anywhere in this great big world now
you like to go ta?"

They said, "Dad, we wanna see the biggest of twine in Minnesota"
picked the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

So the very day we loaded up the car
With skins and pickled wieners
Crossword puzzles, comics
And mama's made rhubarb pie

Pulled out of the driveway and the
They all waved good-bye and so began our day journey

We picked up a guy holding a sign that said, "Twine or bust"
He smelled real bad and he said his was Bernie
I put in a Whitman tape, my wife put on a brand new hair net
Kids in the back seat jumping up and down
Yelling, "Are we yet?"

And all of us were joined in one common thought
As we rolled down the long and winding interstate in our '53

We're gonna see the biggest ball of in Minnesota
We're for the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

Oh, we couldn't wait to get
So we straight through for three whole days and nights
Of course, we stopped for more wieners now and then

The scenery was just so pretty, boy I wish the kids seen it
But you can't see out of the of the car
Because the windows are covered
With the decals from all the places we've already been

Like Elvis-O-Rama, the Museum
The Boll Monument and Cranberry World
The Shuffleboard Hall Of Fame, Dog Rock
And The Mecca of Albino

We've been to ghost towns, parks, wax museums
And the place where you can drive through the middle of a
We've seen farms and tarantula ranches
But still one thing we gotta see

Well, we the state line about 6:39
And we saw the sign said, "Twine Ball exit, fifty miles"
Oh, the kids were so happy they singing
"99 Bottles Of Beer On The Wall" for the twenty-seventh that day

So, we pulled off the road at the chance gas station
Got a few more pickled wieners and a chocolate soda

On our way to see the biggest ball of in Minnesota
gonna see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

Finally, at 7:37 early Wednesday
As the sun was in the Minnesota sky
Out in the distance, on the
It appeared to me like a vision before my eyes

I parked the car and walked with awe-filled
that glorious, huge, majestic sphere
I was just so overwhelmed by its immensity
I had to pop a beer

Yes, on these hallowed grounds, open ten to eight on
In a little under a makeshift pagoda

There sits the biggest of twine in Minnesota
I you, it's the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

Oh, what on earth would make a man decide to do that kind of
Oh, windin' up twenty-one thousand, one hundred forty of string

What was he trying to prove? Who was he to impress?
Why did he build it? How did he do it? It's anybody's
Where did he get the twine? was goin' through his mind?
Did it seem like a good idea at the time?

Well, we up beside it and I warned the kids
"Now, you better not it, those ropes are there for a reason"
I said, "Maybe if you're good, I'll tie it to the of our car
And we can it home", but I was only teasin'

Then we went to the shop and stood in line
a souvenir miniature ball of twine
Some window decals and else they'd sell us
And I bought a postcards
"Greetings the twine ball, wish you were here"
Won't the folks home be jealous?

I gave our to Bernie and we stood by the ball
And we all gathered and said, "Cheese"
Then Bernie ran away with my brand new
But at least we got our

So we all just stared at the for a while
And my got moist but I said with a smile
"Kids, this what America's all about"
Then I feelin' kinda gooey inside
And I on my knees and I cried and cried
And that's when those security threw us out

You know, I bet if we that sucker
roll all the way down to Fargo, North Dakota

'Cause the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota
I'm talkin' 'bout the biggest ball of in Minnesota

Well, we stayed that at the Twine Ball Inn
In the morning we on our way home again
But we really want to leave, that was perfectly clear

I said, "Folks, I can tell all sad to go"
I winked my eye and I said
"You know, I got a funny kind of
We'll be comin' back again year"

'Cause I've been all around great big world
And I can't think of anywhere else I'd go ta

Than the biggest of twine in Minnesota
I said the biggest of twine in Minnesota

Minnesota, Minnesota,
