Luyện nghe bài hát John Brown

John Brown went off to war to 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 glad a son of mine
Make me proud to you own a gun
Do what the says, lot of medals you will get
put them on the wall when you get home"

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

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

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

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

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

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

"Don't you remember, ma, I went off to war
You thought it was the best 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, what am I here?
Tryin' to somebody or die tryin'
But the thing that scared me most, my enemy came close
I can see that his face looked like mine"

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

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