Luyện nghe bài hát The Gospel Accordin' to John

(kinky friedman, friedman)
He was an old-time preacher on the ol' time radio
But they never learn to listen till they enough to know.
I used to walk out on that porch when mama'd the durn thing on
To the accordin' to john.

Her mail-order shawl fell across her silver hair,
Her sad eyes saw a better world john came on the air.
Mama had someone to turn to she was rockin' all night
To the accordin' to john.

You see, she was a blind believer in john's beatin' game.
He'd heal em, wheel em, em, bless em in heaven's name.
Onward christian soldiers, just a and a half
Buys a photo of with an autograph.

And jesus was a-watching from the by the door
When that chair grew silent and that shawl fell to the floor.
I walked out on that because I couldnt find a prayer
When a voice come a-cracklin' cross the air.

Said, folks, righteous times are comin, I say, they're comin' right on back.
You can hop that gospel train, he said, both sides of the track.
Some prayin', keep a-listenin', keep a-helpin' out the show,
cause ol' john's with you you go.

Now some folks claim the scriptures are the only truth,
swear by peter, paul or matthew, mark or luke,
Ah but ain't a nicer passage just to sail a dream upon
Than the gospel to john.

He was just an preacher but he answered mama's call,
His words may never a soul, but his faith could heal us all.
cause life's a sacred pilgrimage trip you're on
And that's the accordin to john.

God bless you, john you ol' ...
