Luyện nghe bài hát The Three Sofa Story

(Tom T. Hall)

I was sittin' and in an old friend's apartment
On the of Nashville one night
And in his he had these three sofas
He had two too all right.

I buddy tell me about these three sofas
And start with that black on there
He said there's story in of the sofas
But give me a for quenchin' my thirst.

He said now that one is a good one for sleepin'
I got that one my first wife
She me half crazy took all of the babies
And off to Houston one night.

Well I did as I pleased and I what I thought
And it her right out of her mind
So many abuses and no damn
I've often been that I'm one of that kind.

Now that second sofa I got that a pal
Who was broke and was headed home
He was ram cut and boozed out and dusty
And I got thing for a song.

On long winter evenings I'd sit on that
And listened what that fella
I could do without it but there's something about it
That makes me believe the to the thing.

That one right out there there's a story about it
I got that one from my wife
A middle aged lady with money to
I she was the love of my life.

Now I like I got that damn thing in here
Cause it seem to fit any house
It's oblong and it's ugly and tasteless
But I got it in here and get it out.

I thanked him for tellin' the three sofa
I yawned and I said my
And on my way I considered the safas
And how they part of his life.

and sweethearts the winners and losers
Kept conjuring up in my
And it's all in the tellin' of the three sofa
Just one of the where I've done my time...
