Luyện nghe bài hát The Biggest Ball Of Twine In Minnesota

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

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

So the very next day we up the car
With potato skins and wieners
Crossword puzzles, Spider-Man
And home made rhubarb pie

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

We've been to ghost towns, theme parks, wax
And the where you can drive through the middle of a tree
We've seen alligator farms and tarantula
But there's one thing we gotta see

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

What was he trying to prove? Who was he trying to
Why did he it? How did he do it? It's anybody's guess
did he get the twine? What was goin' through his mind?
Did it just like 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 good, I'll 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
a souvenir miniature ball of twine
Some window decals and anything else they'd us
And I bought a couple
"Greetings from the twine ball, wish you here"
Won't the folks back home be

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Minnesota, Minnesota,
