Luyện nghe bài hát The Three Sofa Story

(Tom T. Hall)

I was sittin' and drinkin' in an old friend's
On the of Nashville one night
And in his apaprtment he had these sofas
He had two too all right.

I said buddy tell me about three sofas
And start with that black on there
He there's story in each of the sofas
But me a minute for quenchin' my thirst.

He said now that first one is a one for sleepin'
I got that one from my wife
She left me crazy took all of the babies
And off to Houston one night.

Well I did as I pleased and I said what I
And it drove her right out of her
So many abuses and no excuses
I've often been told I'm one of that kind.

Now that sofa I got that from a pal
Who was broke and was headed back
He was ram cut and rusty boozed out and
And I got that for a song.

On long evenings I'd sit on that sofa
And listened what fella sing
While I could do without it but something about it
That makes me the attentions to the thing.

That third one right out there's a story about it
I got that one from my second
A middle aged lady money to spend
I she was the love of my life.

Now I like I never got that damn thing in
Cause it don't to fit any house
It's oblong and it's ugly and tasteless
But I got it in here and get it out.

I him for tellin' the three sofa story
I yawned and I said my
And on my way home I considered the
And how were part of his life.

Buddies and sweethearts the and losers
Kept conjuring up in my
And it's all in the tellin' of the three sofa
one of the places where I've done my time...
