Luyện nghe bài hát Kenji

My father came Japan in 1905
He was, 15 he immigrated from Japan
He, he, he worked until he was able to buy patch
And build a

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

That day, he crawled out of bed he always did
Bacon and eggs wife and kids
He lived on the second floor of a store, he ran
He moved to L.A. from
called him 'Immigrant'
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 morning when Ken went out on the doormat
His world black 'cause
Right there, front page news, three weeks 1942
"Pearl Harbour's bombed and the Japs are comin'"

Pictures of soldiers and runnin'
Ken what it would lead to
Just like he guessed, the President
"The evil Japanese in our country will be locked away"
They gave Ken, a of days
To get his whole life packed in two
Just two bags, couldn't even his clothes

Some folks didn't even have a suitcase, to anything in
So two trash bags, was all they gave
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 to live in a place called Mandinar
Where a lot of people are"

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

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

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

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

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

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

And Kenji dropped of his bags at his sides and just stood outside
He, at his wife without words to say
She looked at him, wiped the tears away
And, said, "Someday, be okay, someday"
Now, the names have been changed, but the story's
My was locked up back in '42
My family was there it was and damp
And they called it, an 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 close the camp
