Luyện nghe bài hát Amen

(Chris Jonat)

Well I'm Jonathan Charles Henry
I've on this farm 30 years and a day
Some folks call me but I don't like it that way
Since the storm of '90 when dad left to
Mom passed a year later couldn't being alone
It's going on ten years I been head of home
Now I got me a wife and three of my own
I work hard, I live clean, I reap what sewn

Aint had rain to speak of in round a year
searching for water but there aint nothing near
We need soon, but it won't come I fear
My won't eat, wife'll run out of tears.
So I went to the back forty, I needed the air
I past the fence, through the Johnson share
And when I made sure no one followed me there
I got on my knees, cried Lord, do you care?

Amen, Amen, Oh Lord, Amen,

morning came early sleep still in my eyes
My eldest, John Three, he was the to rise
He said, Daddy come quick I got the biggest
We to our clothes cause we realized
Could hear the rain the patio door
And sneaking through cracks the kitchen floor
We danced in the til we could stand it no more
Then got on our knees gave our thanks to the Lord

I sent the boys to their aunts, day last
Yesterday morning told the get there fast
The water rising it's already past
The of the house but I'm staying pat
Now I'm top of the tree where my daddy climbed
And I'm thinking I'm done though it don't my time
I got living to do, to mind
Wanna watch the boys grow, see the in my line
And I can't bow down, there's no land for my knees
But I'm crying out loud now, I'm you please
Father mercy, Jesus hear my pleas
up in heaven I'm not ready to leave

Well I'm Jonathan Charles McKay
And lived on this farm my ten years and a day
Some call me Three but I don't like it that way
Since daddy done traded his own for rain
