Luyện nghe bài hát John Brown

John Brown went off to war to on a foreign shore
His mama sure was of him
He stood so and tall in his uniform and all
His mama's face broke out 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 says, lot of medals you will get
We'll put them on the wall you get home"

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

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

Then the ceased to come, for a long time they did not come
Ceased to come for about ten months or
when letter finally came saying, "Go down 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 soldier son in
all the people passed, she saw her son at last
When she did she not believe her eyes

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

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

"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 there in my shoes

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

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

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