Luyện nghe bài hát Kenji

My father came from in 1905
He was, 15 when he immigrated Japan
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 know why I have to tell it, but I know what it means
Close your eyes, just the scene
As I paint it for you, it was War II
When this man named woke up
Ken was not a
He was a man, with a family, who owned a store in L.A.

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

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

Pictures of soldiers dyin' and
Ken knew it would lead to
Just like he guessed, the President
"The evil Japanese in our home country will be away"
They 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 a suitcase, to pack anything 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 lie, he said, "The US is lookin' for spies
So we have to live in a place Mandinar
Where a lot of Japanese are"

Stop it, don't look at the
You don't get the soldiers wonderin'
If you run or not,
if you run then you might get shot
Other than that, try not to think it
Try not to 'bout it bein' so crowded
Someday, we'll get out, someday,

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

So now, in a town with soldiers surroundin' them
Every day, every night, look down at
From watch up on the wall
Ken couldn't really them at all
They were just their job and
He wasn't gonna any problems

He had a little garden, 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 own damn country, what for?
Time passed in the town

He wanted them to it down when they were free
The way out was, joinin' the army
And supposedly, some men went out for the army, on
And ended up flyin' to with a bomb
That 15 kilotonne blast, put an end to the war fast
Two cities blown to bits, the end of the war came quick

Ken got out, big hopes of a life, with his kids and his wife
But, when they got to their home
they saw made them feel so alone
These had trashed every room
Smashed in the 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, at his wife without words to say
She looked back at him, wiped the tears
And, said, "Someday, be okay, someday"
Now, the have been changed, but the story's true
My family was up back in '42
My family was there it was dark and
And they it, an internment camp

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