Luyện nghe bài hát The Dying Doctor

Doctor Leo Hayes was our company
the big coal companies he got his pay
For thirty-nine years he to cure us
And now today on his lay.
He his five boys and his three daughters
And at his bed we stood
We heard him the history of the coal miners
And he said, "Don't let people down."

You are all connected with the of medicine
You you'll keep true I know
You will do your best to help people
I my eyes for I must go.
His youngest was Doctor Betty
With her so pretty and her smile so sweet
She walked the coal towns of and Byrndale
She saw the waters flowing down the street.

She saw the children the cankered water
She saw the chickens fly up on the
She saw the waters the sewers
And flood gardens of victory.
She to the big shots of the Shawmut Company
She did not beg and she did not
She stood and pounded the table
pipes and bathrooms are what we need.

My dady told me to fight to cure
But I can't sickness with sewage all around
These germs people quicker than I can cure them
We a foundation under every house.
We need a for every family
Yes, you can set and blink your eyes
Three hundred are out behind me
We will clean this or know the reason why.

I my job as the family doctor
I nailed up my and went on my own
I my pillbag and waded those waters
I set by a in many a home.
I saw you rainwater in rusty washtubs
I saw you come dirty up out of your pits
you ride with your coffin up to your graveyard
With not a nickel to pay your debt.

On July the from the hills around
hundred miners walked down through town
The state was testing the water
While he was you stood around.
One asked him to have a drink free
The inspector looked out our pits
He set his hat back on his and says,
"I drink a drop of that on a bet."

I think of my daddy and brothers and
we stood around his dying bed
When I walk the of the company towns
I can hear every word my said.
The Shawmut Company is in its own paws
The people not worth the money cost
A hundred have died, hundred not working
thousand tons of coal is lost.
