Luyện nghe bài hát West Virginia Mine Disaster

Oh say, did you see him, it was early this
He passed all your on his way to the coal
He was tall, he was slender, and his eyes so tender
His occupation was mining, Virginia his home

It was before twelve, I was feeding the children
Ben Moseley came running to bring us the
Number eight is all flooded, men are in danger
And we don't know their number, but we fear all doomed

So I picked up the baby, and I left all the
To each other and to pray for their own
Tommy, fourteen, and there's John not much younger
Their own time soon will be coming to go down the hole

will I say to his poor little children?
And what will I tell his mother at home?
And what will I say to my that's clear broken?
To my heart that's broken if my baby is gone?

Now, if I had the money to do more than feed them
I'd give them good learning, the best be found
So when they growed up be checkers and weighers
And not spend their life in the dark underground

Say, did you see him going, it was early this
He passed all houses on his way to the coal
He was tall, he was slender, and his dark eyes so
His was mining, West Virginia his home
