Luyện nghe bài hát West Virginia Mine Disaster

Oh say, did you see him, it was this morning
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

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

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

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

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

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