Luyện nghe bài hát John Doe No. 24

I was standing on the sidewalk in
In Jacksonville,
asked what my name was there came no reply
They said I was a deaf and half-wit boy
But Louis was my name, I could not say it
I was born and in New Orleans
My spirit was wild, so I let the take it
On a barge and a upstream

Well they searched for a mother and searched for a father
And they till they searched no more
The doctors put to rest scientific tests
And they me "John Doe No. 24"
And they all shook their in pity
For a so silent and dark
Well no doubt that life's a mystery
But so too is the human

And it was my heart's own perfume the crepe jasmine bloomed
On Rue Morgue
Though I couldn't the bells of the streetcars coming
By toeing the track I
And if I an old man returning
With my and porkpie hat
I'd hit every jazz on Bourbon
And I'd hit everyone on Basin after

The years kept passing as they passed me
From one ward to another
Like I was an orphan from the lost and found
missing the other
And they gave me a harp Christmas
And all the took a dance
But lately I've been listless
been dreaming again of the past

I'm wandering down to the of the great Big Muddy
Where the shotgun stand
I am seven years old and I my dad
Reach out for my
While I breath no one missed me
So they on the day that I cease
Put a sprig of crepe with me
To me of New Orleans

I was on the sidewalk in 1945
In Jacksonville,
