Luyện nghe bài hát God Bless Robert E. Lee

When Robert E. Lee surrendered the
Jefferson Davis was upset it
He said, "How that man rescind an order
From the President of the Confederate of America"

Then somebody told him
General Lee had made the decision
In order to save lives because he felt the battle comin' up
Would cost twenty thousand lives on both sides

And he said two hundred forty thousand already is enough
So this is not about the north or the south
But about the brother war
Brother against brother, against son, the war that nobody won

And for all those lives were saved
I gotta say God bless E. Lee
Well, the mansion where the General used to live is burning
Cotton fields are blue with Sherman's

I overheard a Yankee say Nashville fell
So I'm on my way to join the General Lee might need my help
But look away, away, Dixie, I don't want them to see
What they're to my Dixie, God bless Robert E. Lee

Sherman's troops burned Atlanta and the lit up the sky
And those of us who survived it are watchin' my die
But at Appomattox General Lee sat down
And to the Yankees and Ulysses S Grant

So look away, look Dixie
I won't ever stop loving you, my Dixie, till they put me in the
And the words they probably
Hear from me are God Robert E. Lee
