Luyện nghe bài hát The Mayor of Candor Lied

In the town of Candor in the last year of my youth
I learned the final lesson of the to the truth
My father was a farmer go tilling in the ground
My was a neighbor she'd go visiting around

But I care
For I had found the answer to a plowboy's lonely
She was the daughter of the

The Mayor fought my courtship for he'd other plans
He saw her married to a better man than a boy with farmer's
I said, I hate your father, it's so not to strike him
She said, you know I love you because so much like him

And so I'd go in the evening
And there she'd stand a crying in the dawn as I was

But the Mayor of lied
When he me his only daughter
The Mayor of Candor
To take her the water
a thing to do to a young man in love
What a to do to your daughter

One day with father on his tractor and mother off
I go to find the mayor and work out I can
But he is not at his office, he is not at his
When I find him in the he is not alone

He is holding a woman and imagine my
As she jumps back from his arms, I look into my mother's

All my thoughts of outrage, embarrassment and
Were washed by what came roaring through my brain
The at my mercy and I hear my own voice say
run for re-election is just one month away

And the world will never of what I've seen here, sir
But be with your daughter, is my meaning clear?

My mother in horror at the compromise we made
But the Mayor's rueful smile says the piper must be
I had a month of joy in from this deal I'd made in hell
What was to happen then my a prophet could not tell

The day after his re-election and the celebration
The Mayor takes his family on a month long vacation

Oh Coleen, you know how much I you
There is no one I'd place above you
Oh Coleen, you don't know me
To have you nothing that's below me

But time always passes all
And as the summer follows spring so does the follow fall

The day that they I stand waiting on the road
I watch the car drive up, I watch the passengers
Of course she there, of course I should have known
The Mayor says that she has stayed, the was her own

I out my hatred and my fury at his lies
When he says you tried to me, you're just as bad as I
He says, go and do your damndest, throw mother to the streets
You know been too many years, I had to be discreet

And as he stands there saying just two of a kind
It hits me like a thunderbolt exploding in my

As I look into his leering aged mirror of my own face
He laughs and sneers and says, of dear son
Where do you think you came from in the first

The Mayor of lied
When he offered me his daughter
The Mayor of tried
To take her the water
What a thing to do to a man in love
What a thing to do to your
