Luyện nghe bài hát Tom Ames' Prayer

Everyone in Nacadoches knew Tom Ames would come to bad end
Well the sheriff had cought him chickens and such
by the that he was ten
And one day his daddy took a ten bill
and he it in his hand
He said I can you're headed for trouble son
and your wouldn't understand

So he took that money and his old bay
and he left without a of thanks
Fell in with a crowd in some border
and took to banks

the law your luck will run out fast
and a few years and went
'Till he's trapped in an alley in
with all but shells spent

And he realized prayin' was the thing
that he ever tried
Well he sure he knew quite how
but he up to the sky

Said you don't owe me and as far as I know
Lord owe nothin' to you
And I askin' for a miracle Lord
just a bit of luck will do

And you know I ain't never prayed
but it seemed to me
If prayin' is the same as Lord
I don't no charity

Yeah but right now Lord with my to the wall
Can't but recall
How they nearly hung me for a horse
in Fort Arkansas

Judge Parker guilty and the gavel came down
just like a cannon
And I away quietly
and I began to and plot

Well sent the preacher down to my cell
He the Lord is your only hope
He's the only friend that you have
you hit the end of Parker's rope

Well I guess he coulda' on preachin' 'till Christmas
but he his back on me
I put a home blade to that golden throat
and the deputy for the key

Well it ain't the first close call I had
I'm sure you already
I had some help from you and the devil himself
It's been touch and go

but who in the hell am I talkin' to
there ain't no one but me
Then he both his pistols and he spit in the dirt
and he walked out in the
