John Henry

歌詞

One two three When John Henry was a little baby Sitting on his daddy's knee He picked up a hammer and a little piece of steel And cried hammer's gonna be the death of me Lord Lord Hammer's gonna be the death of me Now the captain he said to John Henry I'm gonna bring that steam drill around I'm gonna bring that steam drill out on these tracks I'm gonna knock that steel on down God God I'm gonna knock that steel on down John Henry told his captain Lord a man ain't nothing but a man But before I let this steam drill beat me down I'm gonna die with a hammer in my hand Lord Lord Die with a hammer in my hand Ready Sue John Henry driving on the right side That steam drill driving on the left Says fore I'll let your steam drill beat me down I'm gonna hammer myself to death Lord Lord I'll hammer my fool self to death Well captain said to John Henry What is that storm I hear John Henry said That ain't no storm Captain that's just my hammer in the air Lord Lord That's just my hammer in the air John Henry said to his shaker Shaker why don't you sing Cause I'm swiging thirty pounds from my hips on down Yeah listen to my cold steel ring Lord Lord Listen to my cold steel ring Come on baby I wanna hear that banjo now too I want it now Now John Henry he hammered in the mountains His hammer was striking fire But he worked so hard it broke his heart John Henry laid his hammer and died Lord Lord John Henry laid down his hammer and died Well now John Henry he had him a woman By the name of Polly Ann She walked out to those tracks picked up John Henry's hammer Polly drove steel like a man Lord Lord Polly drove that steel like a man Come on Well every every Monday morning When a bluebird he began to sing You could hear John Henry from a mile or more You can hear John Henry's hammer ring Lord Lord You can hear John Henry's hammer ring Set out again So you can hear John Henry's hammer ring Lord Lord You can hear John Henry's hammer ring Come on Woah
