Luyện nghe bài hát Kenji

My father from Japan in 1905
He was, 15 when he immigrated from
He, he, he until he was able to buy this patch
And a store

Let me, you the story in the form of a dream
I don't know why I have to tell it, but I what it means
your eyes, just picture the scene
As I paint it for you, it was War II
When this man Kenji woke up
Ken was not a
He was a man, with a family, who owned a store in L.A.

That day, he out of bed like he always did
Bacon and with wife and kids
He lived on the second of a little store, he ran
He moved to L.A. Japan
They him 'Immigrant'
In Japanese, he'd say, he was called,
That meant 'First generation in the United

When everyone was afraid of the Germans, afraid of the
But most of all afraid of a homeland
And that morning Ken went out on the doormat
His world went black
Right there, page news, three weeks before 1942
"Pearl been bombed and the Japs are comin'"

Pictures of dyin' and runnin'
Ken knew what it lead to
Just he guessed, the President said
"The evil Japanese in our country will be locked away"
gave Ken, a couple of days
To get his whole packed in two bags
Just two bags, couldn't pack his clothes

Some folks didn't even have a suitcase, to pack in
So two trash bags, was all gave them
the kids asked mum, "Where are we goin'?"
Nobody knew, what to say to them
Ken didn't wanna lie, he said, "The US is for spies
So we have to in a place called Mandinar
Where a lot of people are"

Stop it, don't look at the
You wanna get the soldiers wonderin'
If you run or not,
'Cause if you run then you get shot
Other than that, try not to about it
Try not to worry it bein' so crowded
Someday, get out, someday, someday

As soon as war out
The G.I. came and just come to the house
And you have to come all the have to go
They took Mr.Lee, didn't understand
Why did they to take him?
Because an innocent labor

So now, they're in a town with soldiers them
Every day, night, look down at them
watch towers up on the wall
Ken couldn't really them at all
were just doin' their job and
He wasn't make any problems

He had a garden, with vegetables and fruits that
He gave to the troops in a basket his wife
But in the of his mind, he wanted his families life saved
Prisoners of war in their own damn country, for?
passed in the prison town

He wanted them to live it down when they were
The only way out was, the army
And supposedly, men went out for the army, signed on
And ended up flyin' to Japan with a
That 15 blast, put an end to the war pretty fast
Two cities were to bits, the end of the war came quick

Ken got out, big hopes of a normal life, his kids and his wife
But, when they got back to their
they saw made them feel so alone
These people had every room
in the windows and bashed in the doors
Written on the walls and the floor 'Japs not welcome

And Kenji dropped both of his bags at his sides and just outside
He, looked at his wife words to say
She looked back at him, wiped the away
And, said, "Someday, be okay, someday"
Now, the have been changed, but the story's true
My was locked up back in '42
My family was there it was and damp
And they it, an internment camp

When we got back from camp, uhh
It was pretty, pretty bad, I, I remember my husband
"Are we gonna 'til last?"
Then my husband died before they the camp
