Luyện nghe bài hát Ben McCulloch

We signed up in San Antone my Paul and me
To fight Ben McCulloch and the Texas infantry
Well the poster said get a uniform and seven bucks a week
The best rations in the army and a we could keep
When I first eyes on the general I knew he was a fightin' man
He was every inch a every word was his command
Well his eyes were cold as the lead and steel forged into of war
He took the lives of many and the souls of more

they marched us to Missouri and we hardly stopped for rest
Then he this speech and said we're comin' to the test
we've got to take Saint Louie boys before the yankees do
If we control the Mississippi then the are through

Well they told us that our enemy all be dressed in blue
They forgot about the winter's and the cursed fever too
My brother died at Wilson's creek and Lord I him fall
We fell to the Boston Mountains in the North of Arkansas

Goddamn you Ben
I hate you more than any man alive
And when you die you'll be a soldier just like me
In the infantry

And on the way to Fayetteville we McCulloch`s name
And mourned the dead we'd left behind and we was carrying the lame
I killed a boy the other who'd never even shaved
I even know what I'm fightin' for I ain't never owned a slave

So I snuck out of camp and then I heard the news next
The Yankees won the battle and lost his life
