Luyện nghe bài hát Kenji

My father came Japan in 1905
He was, 15 when he immigrated Japan
He, he, he worked until he was to buy this patch
And build a

Let me, tell you the story in the of a dream
I don't know why I to tell it, but I know what it means
your eyes, just picture the scene
As I paint it for you, it was War II
this man named Kenji woke up
Ken was not a
He was just a man, with a family, who owned a in L.A.

That day, he crawled out of bed like he did
Bacon and eggs with wife and
He lived on the second floor of a store, he ran
He moved to L.A. from
called him 'Immigrant'
In Japanese, he'd say, he was called,
That meant 'First in the United States'

everyone was afraid of the Germans, afraid of the Japs
But most of all afraid of a attack
And that morning when Ken went out on the
His world went 'cause
Right there, front page news, three weeks before
"Pearl been bombed and the Japs are comin'"

Pictures of soldiers and runnin'
Ken knew what it would to
Just like he guessed, the said
"The evil Japanese in our home country be locked away"
They gave Ken, a couple of
To get his whole life packed in two
Just two bags, couldn't even pack his

Some folks didn't even a suitcase, to pack anything in
So two bags, was all they gave them
When the asked mum, "Where are we goin'?"
Nobody knew, what to say to them
Ken wanna lie, he said, "The US is lookin' for spies
So we have to live in a called Mandinar
Where a lot of Japanese are"

it, don't look at the gunmen
You don't wanna get the wonderin'
If you run or not,
'Cause if you run you might get shot
Other than that, try not to about it
Try not to worry it bein' so crowded
Someday, get out, someday, someday

As as war broke out
The G.I. and they just come to the house
And you have to all the Japanese have to go
They took Mr.Lee, people didn't
Why did they have to him?
Because he's an labor

So now, they're in a town with soldiers surroundin'
Every day, every night, look down at
From watch towers up on the
Ken couldn't really them at all
They were just doin' job and
He wasn't make any problems

He had a garden, with vegetables and fruits that
He gave to the troops in a basket his wife
But in the back of his mind, he wanted his families life
Prisoners of war in their own country, what for?
Time passed in the prison

He wanted to live it down when they were free
The only way out was, the army
And supposedly, some men out for the army, signed on
And ended up flyin' to Japan with a
15 kilotonne blast, put an end to the war pretty fast
Two cities were blown to bits, the end of the war came

Ken got out, big hopes of a normal life, with his and his wife
But, when they got to their home
What saw made them feel so alone
These people had trashed room
Smashed in the windows and bashed in the
Written on the walls and the floor not welcome anymore'

And dropped both of his bags at his sides and just stood outside
He, at his wife without words to say
She looked back at him, wiped the tears
And, said, "Someday, be okay, someday"
Now, the names have been changed, but the story's
My was locked up back in '42
My family was it was dark and damp
And they it, an internment camp

When we got back from camp, uhh
It was pretty, pretty bad, I, I remember my husband
"Are we stay 'til last?"
Then my husband died before close the camp
