John Henry (约翰·亨利) - Lonnie Donegan[00:00:00]
Well Jogn Henry told his little woman[00:00:03]
Honey cook my supper soon[00:00:07]
I've got ninety miles of track[00:00:11]
I'm going to line[00:00:13]
Gonna line them[00:00:15]
By the light of the moon[00:00:16]
No no[00:00:18]
Gonna line them[00:00:19]
By the light of the moon[00:00:20]
John Henry was a steel driver[00:00:22]
He was the best in the land[00:00:24]
And he'd die[00:00:26]
With his hammer in his hand[00:00:26]
I'll tell you all about him now[00:00:28]
Oh John Henry told his captain[00:00:30]
Know a man ain't nothing but a man[00:00:34]
But before I let your[00:00:38]
Steam drill beat me down[00:00:40]
Gonna die with the hammer in my hand[00:00:41]
No no[00:00:44]
Gonna die with the hammer in my hand[00:00:45]
Oh John Henry told his captain[00:00:49]
Know a man ain't nothing but a man[00:00:52]
But before I let your[00:00:56]
Steam drill beat me down[00:00:58]
Gonna die with the hammer in my hand[00:01:00]
No no[00:01:02]
Gonna die with the hammer in my hand[00:01:04]
Oh John Henry had new woman[00:01:07]
And the dress that she wore was red[00:01:11]
Oh she studied the track lord[00:01:15]
She never looked back[00:01:17]
I'm going where John Henry lies dead[00:01:18]
No no[00:01:21]
Going where John Henry lies dead[00:01:22]
Ah John Henry went down to Washington[00:01:25]
And they buried him in the sand[00:01:29]
And the people from the east[00:01:33]
And people from the west[00:01:35]
Ain't seen such a steel driving man[00:01:37]
Yeah no[00:01:39]
Ain't seen such a steel driving man[00:01:41]
But if some say he's from England[00:01:44]
And some say he's from France[00:01:47]
No he's nothing but a Louisiana man[00:01:52]
A leader of the steel driving gang[00:01:55]
No no[00:01:58]
A leader of the steel driving gang[00:01:59]
