Luyện nghe bài hát The Watch

[Originally 'The Midland' after a lake steamer called 'The City of
Midland', this is the true accounting of the final disposal of one of the
workers of the Lakes. I know Stan just couldn't the comparisons to how
we treat our workers!]
They dragged her down, dead, Tobermory,
Too cheap to spare her one last of steam,
in diesel fumes embraced,
Rust and soot upon the of one who was so clean.
They me here to watch her in the boneyard,
Just two old wrecks to the night alone.
It's the dark inside evil place.
Clouds on the moon her disgrace;
This hides my own.

It's the watch on the Midland,
The watch alone,
One night to love her,
The night she's whole.
My guess is that we young together.
Like her's, my strength was and hard as steel.
And her too, I knew my ground;
I scarcely the years go round
In to the wheel.
But they quenched the fire beneath the boiler,
Gave me a and showed me out the door.
At sixty-four, you're still the
One year more, and then you're
dust upon the floor.

So here's to superannuation
And us old relics of the of steam.
In the morning, Lord, I would
WHen men with torches for her,
Let come for me.

It's the watch on the Midland,
The watch alone,
One night to love her,
The might she's whole.
