Luyện nghe bài hát Uncle Frank

They powered up the city with hydro-electric
Now we got more we can ever use
They flooded out the hollow and all the folks down there out
But they got paid so aint nothin else to think about

of them made their living cutting the timber down
Snaking it one log at a up the hill and into town
T.V.A. had a way to it off real fast
Lots of men and build a dam and drown the rest

Uncle lived down the park, down on Cedar Creek
Bought fifteen acres when he got back home from
Fifteen rocky acres, no one else would want
Till all backed up water had to have some place to go

Uncle Frank read or write
Never down a job or needed one in his life
They assured him thered be for him in town building cars
Its already going

The cars came to town and the roads never got built
And the price of all that power kept on going uphill
And banks around the hollow for lake-front property
Where doctors, lawyers, and musicians teach kids to water ski

Uncle Frank couldnt or write
So there was no note or letter found where he
Just a rope his neck
And the kitchen table on its side
