Luyện nghe bài hát Kenji

My father came from Japan in
He was, 15 when he from Japan
He, he, he worked he was able to buy this patch
And a store

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

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

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

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

Some folks didn't have a suitcase, to pack anything in
So two bags, was all they 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 in a place called Mandinar
a lot of Japanese people are"

Stop it, look at the gunmen
You don't wanna get the wonderin'
If you run or not,
'Cause if you run you might get shot
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. came and they just come to the
And you have to come all the have to go
took Mr.Lee, people didn't understand
Why did have to take him?
he's an innocent labor

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

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

He wanted them to live it down when they were
The only way out was, the army
And supposedly, some men went out for the army, on
And ended up to Japan with 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 of a normal life, with his kids and his wife
But, they got back 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 anymore'

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

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