Luyện nghe bài hát The Washerwoman

She's a washerwoman
with the teardrops in her
wondering as she scrubs the factory floor

She thinks of all the
and the she has seen
And the other she'll never see no more

She was into the backstreets in 1919
War when she was twenty-one
So she saw the flicker of a silent movie screen
But often the cracking of a gun

But given that again
oh how she'd dance
Oh how take to the floor

But no knight in shining
take her by the hand
Like did in the days before the war.

She tended to the and she fended for the land
So anxious to serve the best she
And friends of the family me how she loved to dance
And those same people say that she was

But the years have stole her like they often tend to do
And who'd thought it looking at her now
That the hand that held her partner's hand as she on through the night
the sweat from the washerwoman's brow

But given chance again
oh how she'd again
Oh how take to the floor

But no knight in shining
take her by the hand
Like they did in the before the war.

I remember seven ago my sister she was wed
And the lady was no washerwoman
She the light-fantastic and her eyes glistened bright
In a way I thought I'd see again.

And the legs that she had on endless factory floors
led her through the footsteps of her past
She was first a dance-band, last to leave the floor
Oh how she that wedded night would last

But now just a washerwoman
with the teardrops in her
wondering as she scrubs the factory floor

She thinks of all the
and the she has seen
And the other she'll never see no more

But given chance again
oh how dance again
Oh how take to the floor

But no knight in armour
would take her by the
Like did in the days before the war.

Oh no knight in shining
would her by the hand
Like they did in the before the war.
