Luyện nghe bài hát Evening Shade

(Dolly Parton)

My train of thought was broken by a sudden of laughter
Something badly needed to lighten up the
Seemed old Mrs. Bailey had fell
In the water being to scrub the floors
Now Mrs. Bailey was the meanest at the home
She believed in lots of work with play
And we laughed till we bent
we knew we'd get in trouble
But trouble's all we had at shade
Now shade was where they claim to teach you understanding
To teach you and keep you off the streets
And all the kids that there are said to be a problem
delinquents so to speak

But understanding isn't learned from punishment and
An iron hand has no gentle touch and ain't learned from hate
The reason we were there is 'cause we had no one who
But they even less at evening shade

Little Susan Bradley, one had wet her bed
Mrs. Bailey took the strap and beat her half to death
And I knew that something must be to put an end to this
And so I started talking plans the older kids

Plans were Joe Johnson would steal the kerosene
And I would get some matches nobody seen
Beckie Adams would make the kids were all outside
Watson would look out for the evil eye

Now Mrs. Bailey took a nap at three o'clock day
We knew that she'd be a'sleeping as the got underway
Now that its all over and the sun is going
There's no evening shade because we it to the ground
Evening Shade was burning like the hell it was
