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!)

The Highwaymen

Desperados Waiting For A Train

 

Desperados Waiting For A Train

(album: Highwayman - 1985)


[Kristofferson]
I played the Red River Valley
And he'd sit out in the kitchen and cry
An' run his fingers through 70 years of living
An' wonder Lord, as ever, will that drill run dry?
We were friends, me an this old man

[All]
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train

[Jennings]
He's a drifter, and a driller of oil wells
And an old-school man of the world
He'd let me drive his car when he's too drunk to
And he'd wink, and give me money for the girls
And our lives were like some old western movie

[All]
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train

[Nelson]
From the time that I could walk, he'd take me with him
To a bar, called the Green Frog Cafe
And there were old men, with beer-guts and dominoes
Lying about their lives while they play
And I was just a kid, they called his sidekick

[All]
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train

[Cash]
One day I looked up, and he's pushing 80
And there's brown tobacco stains all down his chin
To me he's one of the heroes of this country
So why is he all dressed up like them old men?
Drinking beer and playing Moon in 42

[All]
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train

[Nelson]
The day before he died, I went to see him
I was grown, and he was almost gone
[Cash]
So we just closed our eyes and dreamed of supper kitchens
And sang another verse to that old song
[Jennings spoken]
Come on Jack, that son-of-a-gun's a-coming.

[All]
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train
