Luyện nghe bài hát The Biggest Ball Of Twine In Minnesota

Well, I had two of vacation time coming
After working all year down at 'Big Roy's Heating And
So one when my family and I were 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 ball of twine in Minnesota"
They the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

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

Pulled out of the and the neighbors
They all waved and so began our three day journey

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

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

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

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

The scenery was just so pretty, boy I wish the could've seen it
But you see out of the side of the car
Because the windows are covered
With the decals from all the where we've already been

Elvis-O-Rama, the Tupperware 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, theme parks, wax
And the where you can drive through the middle of a tree
seen alligator farms and tarantula ranches
But there's still one we gotta see

Well, we crossed the state line 6:39
And we saw the sign that said, "Twine Ball exit, miles"
Oh, the kids were so happy they started
"99 Bottles Of Beer On The Wall" for the time that day

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

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

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

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

Yes, on these hallowed grounds, ten to eight on weekdays
In a little shrine under a makeshift

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

Oh, what on earth would make a man to do that kind of thing?
Oh, up twenty-one thousand, one hundred forty pounds of string

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

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

Then we went to the shop and stood in line
Bought a miniature ball of twine
Some decals and anything else they'd sell us
And I a couple postcards
"Greetings from the twine ball, wish you here"
the folks back home be jealous?

I gave our to Bernie and we stood by the ball
And we all 'round and said, "Cheese"
Then Bernie ran with my brand new Instamatic
But at we got our memories

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

You know, I bet if we unraveled sucker
It'd roll all the way down to Fargo, Dakota

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

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

I said, "Folks, I can you're all sad to go"
Then I my eye and I said
"You know, I got a funny kind of
We'll be comin' back next year"

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

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