Luyện nghe bài hát John Brown

John went off to war to fight on a foreign shore
His sure was proud of him
He stood so straight and tall in his and all
His mama's face out into a grin

"Oh, son, you look so fine, I'm you're a son of mine
me proud to know you own a gun
Do the captain says, lot of medals you will get
put them on the wall when you get home"

That old train pulled out, John's ma to shout
Tellin' in the neighborhood
"That's my son about to go, he's a soldier now, you know"
She made well sure her neighbors

She got a once in a while, her face broke into a smile
She showed them to the people next door
They bragged her son with his uniform and gun
And these things you called a old fashioned war

Then the ceased to come, for a long time they did not come
Ceased to come for ten months or more
when letter finally came saying, "Go down and meet the train
Your son is coming from the war"

She and she went right down, she looked up and all around
She did not see her son in sight
all the people passed, she saw her son at last
When she did she could not her eyes

Oh, his was all shot up and his hand were blown away
And he wore a metal brace around his
He whispered kind of slow, in a she didn't know
And she couldn't even recognize his

"Oh, tell me, my darling son, me what they've done
How is it that you come to be way?"
He tried his best to talk but his mouth could move
And his mother had to turn her away

"Don't you remember, ma, when I off to war
You it was the best thing I could do?
I was on the battleground, you home, acting proud
You weren't standing in my shoes

And I thought when I was there, Lord, am I doing here?
Tryin' to somebody or die tryin'
But the that scared me most, when my enemy came close
I can see that his face just like mine"

And I couldn't but think, through the thunder rolling and stink
I was just a puppet in a
And the roar and smoke, this string, it finally broke
And a cannon ball blew my away"

As he away to go, his mother was acting slow
the metal brace that helped him stand
But as he turned to leave, he his mother close
And he dropped his medals into her hand
