Luyện nghe bài hát The Farewell Ball

(Mark Erelli)

The man
building his dam
Then he us it was all for the best
'Cause they tearing it down
They were drowning our
In the of progress I guess

We held our heads
'Til the bought us out
And there wasn't much else we do
But go to Town Hall
To the firemen's ball
It was out in red, white and blue

Come, come take my
Twirl to the band 'round the old Town
Come, take my hand
is our last chance
Down at the Ball

The Downings and
and Dickinsons
Everyone to the nines
They piled town
Came miles around
To pay their one last time

A hush filled the
And the band stopped the
As the midnight bell slowly
I saw men break down
At the of a town
When the played "Auld Lang Syne"

Come, take my hand
Twirl to the 'round the old Town Hall
Come, come take my
They've the last dance
Down at the Ball

Even now I
How the waters all
And made islands of the of hills
And and neighbors
Now scattered like
All etched in my memory
I down there sometimes
Through the pines
To listen to the wind on the
It's nothing has changed
I can hear the strains
Of the last the orchestra played

Come, come my hand
Twirl to the band 'round the old Hall
Come, come my hand
They've called the dance
