Luyện nghe bài hát The Biggest Ball Of Twine In Minnesota

Well, I had two weeks of vacation coming
working all year down at 'Big Roy's Heating And Plumbing'
So one when my family and I were gathered 'round the dinner table
I said, "Kids, if you could go anywhere in this great big 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 next day we loaded up the car
With potato skins and wieners
Crossword puzzles, comics
And home 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 said, "Twine ball or bust"
He smelled real bad and he said his name was
I put in a Slim 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 together in one common thought
As we rolled the long and winding interstate in our '53 DeSoto

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

Oh, we wait to get there
So we drove through for three whole days and nights
Of course, we stopped for pickled wieners now and then

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

Like Elvis-O-Rama, the Tupperware
The Boll Weevil Monument and Cranberry
The Shuffleboard Hall Of Fame, Poodle Dog
And The of Albino Squirrels

We've been to towns, theme 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 started
"99 Bottles Of On The Wall" for the twenty-seventh time that day

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

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

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

I parked the car and walked awe-filled reverence
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 shrine under a pagoda

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Well, we stayed that at the Twine Ball Inn
In the morning we were on our way home
But we really didn't to leave, that was perfectly clear

I said, "Folks, I can tell all sad to go"
Then I winked my eye and I
"You know, I got a kind of feelin'
be comin' back again 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 ball of twine in

Minnesota, Minnesota,
