Luyện nghe bài hát The Sands Of Iwo Jima

George A. was at the movies in '41
They announced it in the lobby had just gone on
He drove up Birmingham, back to the family's farm
Thought he'd get him a deferment, there's was work to be done

He was a man, even in those days
But Uncle Sam decided he was anyway
In the South Pacific, over half a away
He believed in God and country, was just that way
Just way

When I was just a kid, I every weekend
On the he grew up on so I guess so did I
And we'd stay up movies on that black and white TV
We watched 'The Sands of Iwo Jima' starring John

Every year in June A. goes to a reunion
Of the men that he served with and their wives and and grandkids
My great uncle used to take me and I'd watch recollect
About some that I could not comprehend

And I thought about that movie, asked if it was way
He just shook his head and smiled at me in such a way
As he thought some friends he will never see again
He said, "I never saw Wayne on the sands of Iwo Jima"

Most of those men are gone now but he goes every year
And George A.'s still fine, especially for his years
He's still living on homestead in the house that he was born in
And I sure wish I could go see him

He never drove a new car though he could afford it
just buy one for the family, take whatever no one wanted
He said a shiny car didn't much after all the things he'd seen
George A. saw John Wayne on the sands of Iwo Jima

George A. never saw John Wayne on the sands of Iwo
