Luyện nghe bài hát The Tourist

THE
Writer Stewart and Curtis Leach
1965

I was a tourist out on the great white way
lights make night as bright as day and day as dark as night
I visited the city seen all the finer
Then I thought I'd do some slummin' for a while one night
Well I stepped the shadows of a second rate cafe
The burlesques were before me in their old way
As I drew near my table the front whirled around
And I recognized my sweetheart from my own
Yes she was a hometown high school beauty queen
But everybody her how she could be everything
When the contest finally and the judges called her name
She won a trip to Broadway she would find the fame
I turned around and stepped back into crowd
For I she mustn't seen me she always was too proud
And in that one moment the truth my mind unveiled
The town she loved may failed her the she thought she failed
So that night I a letter on a homeward bound express
And it congratulations to you on your success
But if you ever decide to come back home again
Well you know always be here waitin' just like I've always been
I was just a tourist out on the great way
Where lights made night as as day and day as bright as night
When old friends ask about her I smile at them and say
She's star of on Broadway out on the great white way
