歌詞

When John Henry was a little baby boy, sitting on the his papa's knee Well he picked up a hammer and little piece of steel Said Hammer's gonna be the death of me, lord, lord Hammer's gonna be the death of mine The captain said to John Henry I'm gonna bring that steam drill around I'm gonna bring that sterm drill out on the job I'm gonna whup that steel on down John Henry told his captain Lord a man ain't nothing but a man But before I'd let your steam drill beat me down I'd die with a hammer in my hand John Henry asid to his shaker Shaker why don't you sing Because I'm swinging thirty pounds from my hips on down Just listen to that cold steel ring Now the captain said to John Henry I believe that mountain's caving in John Henry said right back to the captain Ain't nothing but my hammer sucking wind Now the man that invented the steam drill He thought he was mighty fine But John Henry srove fifteen feet The steam drill only made nine John Henry hammered in the mountains His hammer was striking fire But he worked so hard, it broke his poor heart And he laid down his hammerand he died NOw John Henry had a little woman Her name was polly Anne John Henry took sick and had to go to bed Polly Anne drove steel like a man John Henry had a little baby You could hold him in the palm of your hand And the last words I heard that poor boy say My daddy was a steel driving man So every Monday morning When the blue dirds begin to sing You can hear John Henry a mile or more You can hear John Henry's hammer ring
