Luyện nghe bài hát THE DAY I JUMPED FROM UNCLE HARVEY’S PLANE

Me 'n' Oliver 'n' Virgil was in the killing time
When my eyes fell this magazine
And I got to reading article on sky-diving and parachuting
And it said jumping out of was the thing

Now raised down on a farm and always ready for adventure
I that I could figure out a way
I said "Well Delmer got a parachute and Uncle Harvey's got an air-plane"
So I "Call the boys together, today's the day"

Well I found out too what Uncle Harvey called an air-plane
Was nothing but an engine and a
And I could feel my a-rising as Delmer packed the parachute
he kept telling me I was doing the right thing

Ron McLoughlin shook my hand as JD me in the harness
And Tildon brought a jug and passed it
I took one look at that and that whisky and that air-plane
And I that bottle up and drank it down

Well I was drunker'n Cooter Jones when they poured me in the
The coughed and headed for the clouds
But I was sober as a by the time they opened up the door
And I've never known my heart to beat so

I said, "Harvey, I can't do it" as he me out the door
And I wrapped my hands around the gear
And I was holding on good 'til Harvey stepped down on my fingers
And Virgil he heard me scream from way down there

I thanked God and Delmer Gill when my parachute finally opened
I said "Well, hell there ain't no use in afraid"
And I went through the hen house, scattering chickens and breaking eggs
And I kissed the ground and fainted dead

Now friends I've done some fighting, and I've been shot at or twice
And I've durn near run over by a train
But I don't I remember being any more afraid
Than the day I jumped from Harvey's plane
