Luyện nghe bài hát A Better Place To Be

It was an early morning bar
And the place just up
And the man come in so fast and it
Started at his

And the broad who the whiskey
She was a big old friendly
And tried to fight her nights
By smilin' at the

And she said "Hey Bub, It's been
Since you been
Where the hell you hidin'?
And why you look so ?

The little man just sat there like he'd never heard a
The she gave out with a cough
not the least put off
She once again

She said, "I don't to bother you
it's understood
I I'm not no beauty queen
But I can listen good"

And the little man his drink in his hand
And he it to his lips
He took a couple of
And he that waitress this story

I am the midnight watchman at Miller's Tool and Die
And I watch the metal rusting, I watch the go by
A week ago at the Diner, I to get a bite
And this here lovely lady she sat two from my right
And Lord, Lord,
She was

You see, she was so damned beautiful she warm a winter's frost
But she looked long past lonely, and well kinda lost
Now I'm not much of a mover or a easy guy
But I decided to glide on and give her one good try
And Lord, Lord,
She was a try

And I was tongued-tied like a boy
I out some words
It did not seem to matter much 'cause I don't she heard
She just clear on through me to a space back in my head
And it shamed me silence, as quietly she said

'If you want me to with you that's all right with me
'Cause I know I'm going nowhere and anywhere's a better to be
Anywhere's a better to be'

When I drove her to my boarding house and I her up to my room
And I went to turn on the only light to brighten up the
But she said, "Please leave the off, oh, I don't mind the dark"
And as her clothes all tumbled 'round her, I could hear my

The moonlight upon her as she lay back in my bed
It was the kind of scene I had imagined in my head
I could not believe it, to think that she was real
And as I tried to her she said, "I know just how you feel

And if you want to come here with me all right with me
'Cause I've been oh so lonely, someone is a better way to be
a better way to be"

When the morning so swiftly I held her in my arms
She slept like a baby, snug and safe harm
I did not want to share her or dare to break the
So she woke I went out to buy us both some food
I back with my paper bag to find that she was gone
She'd left a six word saying, 'It's time that I moved on'

You the waitress took her bar rag
And she it across her eyes
And as she spoke her voice came out as like a sigh
She said, "I wish that I was beautiful or that you were blind
And I wish I weren't so goddamned fat, I wish you were mine
And I wish that you'd come with me when I leave for
For we both all about emptiness and livin' all alone"

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

And if you want me to with you that's all right with me
'Cause I know I'm goin' and anywhere's a better place to be'"
