Luyện nghe bài hát John Brown

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

And I help but think, through the thunder rolling and stink
I was just a puppet in a
And through the roar and smoke, this string, it broke
And a cannon ball blew my away"

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