Luyện nghe bài hát Vance

He was one mornin' it was cold and it was snowin'
And from the start he had a chance
And though the doctors said he couldn't live his mama had some to give
And brought him to her and his mama named him Vance
He was sick a long time I used to sit by him
I'd rub his he would squeeze my hand
But he never cried grit his teeth and smile at me cause he couldn't speak
And that's when I began to respect the man
And I think Vance was right about then
He started school and one day he came home and at the
I could the little man didn't want to come inside
met a girl but her boyfriend Smitty
Had caught him walkin' home her and nearly killed Vance
But then Vance never cried and the only thing Smitty hurt was pride
And he said papa do you become a man when you're one
And I age doesn't make a man a man my son
He looked at me so puzzled eyes so young and kind
And I think Vance was seven about that

I guess say that first love is the very best
At least it was Vance cause he'd scratched Becky on his desk
But Becky went Smitty and Vance was very small
And he used to dream what it'd be to be tall
And then a few years Vance came in one day
And told me and his that he had to go away
To be fitted for a uniform and his mama shed a tear
He kissed her and said he'd see us in two
And he looked at me and said papa I'm be a man
Well two years to the day came walkin' in the driveway
And I didn't recognize him from his size till he got
He in and he hugged his mama
And said hey papa man wanna go with me somewhere and grab a beer
So we're sittin' at this when this fella at the bar started buggin' Vance
Callin' him but Vance kept his cool
And he said papa that guy is Smitty and he's to be now
that's the same guy that used to bully me in school
Then Smitty said the wrong thing when he brought up name
And finally stood and said boy what did you say
And it did my heart so much good when Vance hit ole
And it took two of Smitty's to carry him away
Vance left the very next mornin' and it was cold and it was snowin'
And from the first life hadn't much fun
But he had finally made a stand and he'd become a self man
And incidentally he had turned twenty one
