Hello! I'm Lyrkit!

I tried many ways to memorize English words and found the most effective one for me!

We already have all the words of the songs that we have heard throughout our lives in our memory. We simply did not pay attention to them, but we all already hear them!

I noticed that when you learn a new word from a song that you have already heard before, you already know the translation of this word forever and you will never forget it!

I want to share this method with you. So, the scheme is as follows.

We find songs that we have already heard.

We add all unfamiliar words from them.

We pass mini tests of memory games. done

Now that you know a lot of words, you will very quickly come to know the whole language!

I bet you'll be surprised how effective this method is!)

Angola, Louisiana

 

Angola, Louisiana

(album: Secrets - 1978)


Well I'm feeling fine
I could've been doing time.
Well, I'm doing fine, thank you,
but I could've been pulling time.

I know a brother man doing time,
and he didn't commit no crime.
So, thank you, I'm doing fine,
cuz I could've been pulling time.

I've been painting a picture of Angola, Louisiana
pictures of deals in back alleys where politicians often hide
But it's much more important to me than Angola, Louisiana
Got a lot to do with justice but more with Gary Tyler's life
I got a letter from his mother (that) said,
"Please! Say something to my son."
Truth is: Angola, Louisiana, you're the one.

I ain't never been nowhere near Angola, Louisiana.
Down in St. Charles Parish where the sun won't go alone.
But injustice is not confined to Angola, Louisiana.
It can walk in your living room
as long as it surrounds your home.
I send love to brother Tyler, but after all is said and done;
Truth is: Angola, Louisiana, you're the one.

I can't tell a man not to defend himself,
not at this late stage.
I can't tell a man he got no rights, nowhere,
not in this day and age.
This song may not touch a whole lot of people
persuaded by the truth,
but take a look at what's going on, people,
'cause this all could happen to you.

I've been painting a picture of Angola, Louisiana
Down in St. Charles Parish, where the sun won't go alone
But injustice is not confined to Angola, Louisiana
Well, it can be in your living room
Brother Tyler, hold on, be strong, you're not alone!
I got a letter from his mother that said,
"Please, say something to my son!"
Truth is: Angola, Louisiana, you're the one.

done

Did you add all the unfamiliar words from this song?
