Luyện nghe bài hát God Bless Robert E. Lee

When E. Lee surrendered the Confederacy
Jefferson Davis was about it
He said, "How dare that man rescind an
the President of the Confederate States of America"

Then told him that
General Lee had the decision himself
In order to save because he felt that the battle comin' up
Would cost about twenty lives on both sides

And he said two hundred forty thousand already is enough
So song is not about the north or the south
But the bloody brother war
against brother, father against son, the war that nobody won

And for all those that were saved
I say God bless Robert E. Lee
Well, the mansion where the used to live is burning down
Cotton fields are with Sherman's troops

I overheard a say yesterday Nashville fell
So I'm on my way to join the General Lee might need my help
But away, look away, Dixie, I don't want them to see
What they're to my Dixie, God bless Robert E. Lee

Sherman's troops Atlanta and the flames lit up the sky
And those of us who survived it are my Dixie die
But today at Appomattox Lee sat down
And surrendered to the Yankees and Ulysses S

So look away, look Dixie
I won't stop loving you, my Dixie, till they put me in the ground
And the last words they
Hear from me are God bless E. Lee
