Luyện nghe bài hát Trip to Hyden

Tossed and turned the night in some old motel
Subconsciously some old sinful thing I'd done
My buddy the car and those big coal trucks shook us up
As we drove on Hyden in the early morning sun

Past the hound dogs and domineckered chickens
Temporary lookin' houses with their lean and kids
Every yards a sign proclaimed that Christ was coming soon
And I thought, "Well man, He'd sure be if He did"

On the way we talked about the 40
Of the 39 who died and one who lived to tell the
We stopped for beans and at the Ed & Lois Cafe
Then to see the Sherrif at the Leslie County Jail

took us to the scene of that disaster
I was so to not find any sign of death at all
Just another country with some mud holes and some junk
The mines were deadly silent like a rat in the wall

It was just like being inside of a shotgun
The old man coughed and lit a cigarette that he had
in town I bought a heavy jacket from a store
It was sunny down in Hyden but the town was cold

The old man the undertaker
Who refreshed despite the kind of work I knew he did
We talked about the pretty lady from the Ole Opry
An' we talked the money she was raisin' for the kids

Well, I guess the old man thought we were
He kept reminding me of how his simple name was
Some lady said, "They worth more money now than they's livin'"
And I'll leave it there I suppose she told it pretty well
