Ascoltiamo la canzone ‘The Letter’ di Joe Cocker, e poi facciamo l’esercizio.
“The Letter”
give me a ticket for an airoplane
I ain’t got time to take no fast train
oh ,the lonely days are gone
I’ll be right home
my baby she wrote me a letter
I don’t care how much money i got to spend
I won’t find my way home again
oh the lonely days are gone
I’ll be right home
my baby, she wrote me a letter
She wrote me a letter
said she couldn’t live without me no more
listen to me mister don’t you ever xxxx
my baby once more
anyway
give me a ticket for an airoplane
I ain’t got time to take no fast train
oh ,the lonely days are gone
I’ll be back home
my baby she wrote me a letter
[solo]
She wrote me a letter
said she couldn’t live without me no more
listen to me mister don’t you ever xxxx
my baby once more
anyway
give me a ticket for an airoplane
i ain’t got time to take no fast train
oh ,the lonely days are gone
I’ll be back home
my baby she wrote me a letter
my baby wrote me a letter
my baby wrote me a letter
my baby wrote me a letter
