Alice's Restaurant
Here's a really funny song/ story with pictures to help you understand, enjoy!
It's quite fast and a bit difficult, but with the picture story to help, I think you should be ok. It's by an American country singer calle Arlo Guthrie and it's a story set in the time when young men were being drafted into the army to fight in Vietnam.
