Luyện nghe bài hát Raelene Wheeler

Raeleen wheeler was the first girl I
Through the last of high school, we were thicker than blood
Holed up in Mississippi, and for fun
We made and dreamed up places to run
I was that summer with the big dreams I had
And the I'd written, well, the world needed bad
But a pretty girl needs more and gold
a beat-up black notebook is likely to hold

Hey, Raelene, it's a wide world between river and the bright L.A. lights
And if I'd done it all dreamin' I'd still be in Jackson tonight

Hollywood ain't an endangered breed
But luck is lightnin', and it sure struck me
The hit songs, the women, the standing-room
And years of hard labor, holdin' on to it all
Louisiana i-20 east from Monroe
A bus bound for Jackson and a show
Staring through the glass at the flat miles beyond
Tryin' not to look at a face is gone

Hey, Raelene, a wife at 19, but I heard you made out all
And every now and again, I are you somewhere in Jackson tonight

Well, we killed 'em, we crushed 'em, burned the to the ground
And in the dressing room quiet, I was still down
in the doorway appeared an old flame, full-grown
Looking as ever, and entirely alone
She said the nearly broke her, she was learning to stand
And as she talked it clearer that she wanted a hand
So I drew her close to me, and I kissed my rae
And the miles and the memories just away

Then I glanced in the mirror, and in a second's time
before recognizing that old face as mine
I saw a strange, sad man in a cheap shirt
And a woman he onto like his last hope on earth
He was worn and down as the road he'd been on
And his were half-dead, lookin' too hard, too long
His life measured in nights that and grew dim
Leaving no one happy, least of all him

Then the loading gate slammed, and I let my fall
We traded numbers, talk, promised to call
And as she faded from me, and the closed around
I picked up a black notebook and I let it spill

Hey, Raelene, it's a long way between the wantin' and the makin' it
And if I was the one that you needed I'd never leave tonight
(Tag) yeah, if I had it all to do over I'd still be in tonight
