Luyện nghe bài hát The Dying Doctor

Doctor Leo was our company doctor
From the big coal he got his pay
For years he tried to cure us
And now on his deathbed lay.
He called his five boys and his daughters
And at his bed we stood
We heard him tell the of the coal miners
And he said, "Don't let these down."

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

She saw the children the cankered water
She saw the fly up on the roof
She saw the waters overflow the
And flood gardens of victory.
She went to the big shots of the Company
She did not beg and she did not
She stood flatfooted and the table
Sewer and bathrooms are what we need.

My told me to fight to cure sickness
But I can't cure sickness with sewage all
These germs kill quicker than I can cure them
We need a foundation under house.
We need a bathroom for every
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 shingle and on my own
I carried my pillbag and waded waters
I set by a in many a home.
I saw you rainwater in rusty washtubs
I saw you home dirty up out of your pits
Watched you ride with coffin up to your graveyard
not a nickel to pay your burying debt.

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

I think of my and brothers and sisters
When we stood his dying bed
I walk the streets of the company towns
I can hear every my daddy said.
The Shawmut Company is caught in its own
The people not the money they cost
A hundred died, three hundred not working
Thirty tons of coal is lost.
