Luyện nghe bài hát The Big Parade

Detroit to D.C. night
Capitol, East
Lone young man takes a
And by the of the rails
all his mother's mail
From a city boy in a jungle

Join the slowest he'll ever see
Her of sorrows carried long and carried far
Take these to the wall

Metro line to the Mall with a tour of Japanese
He's wandering and lost a vet in worn fatigues
Takes him down to where belong

He bites his lip beside a widow breaking
She her Purple Heart
Makes a fist, strikes the

All come to a dream
To join the slowest parade ever see
Their weight of sorrows carried and carried far

Toward the other monuments so and clean

Or so taught in school
