Luyện nghe bài hát A Better Place

It was an mornin' bar room
And the just opened up
And the little man in so fast
And he started at his

And the who served the whiskey
She was a big old girl
She tried to fight her empty
By at the world

And she said, "Hey bub
It's awhile since you been around
Where the hell you been
And why you so down?"

The man just sat there
Like he'd heard a sound
The waitress, she out with a cough
And actin' not the least put off, she once again

She said, "I don't want to you
it's understood
I know I'm not no queen
But I sure can good"

And the man took his drink in his hand
And he it to his lips
He took a of sips
And he told that waitress this

I am the watchman
at Miller's Tool and Die
And I watch the rustin'
I the time go by

A week ago at the diner, I to get a bite
And this here lovely
She sat two seats my right
And Lord, Lord, she was alright

You see, she was so damned
She could warm a frost
But she long past lonely
And well now I, I was

Now I'm not of a mover
Or a pick-'em-up guy
But I to glide on over and give her one good try
And Lord, Lord, Lord she was a try

But I was tongued-tied a school boy
I out some words
It did not seem to much
'Cause I think she heard

She looked clear on through me
To a back in my head
And it shamed me silence
As quietly she

"If you me to come with you
That's all with me
'Cause I know I'm nowhere
And a better place to be
Anywhere's a better to be"

I drove her to my boarding house
And I her up to my room
And I went to on the only light
To brighten up the

But she said, "Please the light off
Oh, I don't the dark"
And as her clothes all tumbled her
I could hear my

The moonlight shone her
As she lay in my bed
It was the of scene I only
Had in my head

I just could not it
To think that she was
And as I to tell her, she said
"Shh, I just how you feel"

"And if you want to here with me
That's all with me
'Cause I've been, oh, so
someone is a better way to be
Anywhere's a place to be"

Well, the mornin' came so
I held her in my
She slept a baby
Snug and safe from

I did not want to her
Or to break the mood
So, before she I went out
To buy us both food

I back with a paper bag
To find she was gone
left a six word letter
Sayin', "It's that I moved on"

You that waitress took her bar rag
And she wiped it across her
And as she her voice came out
As somethin' like a

She said, "I wish that I was
Or that you were halfway
And I I weren't so god-damned fat
I wish that you mine"

"And I wish that you'd come me
When I for home
For we know all about emptiness
And all alone"

And the man
at the empty glass in his hand
And he a crooked grin
He said, "I I'm out of gin
And I know we both been so lonely"

"And if you want me to come you
That's alright me
I know I'm goin' nowhere
And anywhere's a better to be"
