John Henry -“Little“ Jimmy Dickens[00:00:00]
John Henry was a little bitty boy[00:00:02]
Sittin' on his mommy's knee[00:00:04]
When he picked up a hammer[00:00:09]
And a little piece of steel[00:00:10]
This hammer'd be a death of me[00:00:13]
Lord Lord this hammer'd[00:00:16]
Be a of medeath [00:00:17]
John Henry was a little bitty boy[00:00:21]
No bigger than[00:00:26]
A palm of your hand[00:00:27]
When his mommy[00:00:29]
Looked at him proudly and said[00:00:31]
My Johnny'll be a steal drivin' man[00:00:34]
Lord lord hey Johnny'll[00:00:37]
Be a steal drivin' man[00:00:38]
John Henry was a steel drivin' man[00:01:03]
Drove steel all through the land[00:01:07]
Before he would that steamlet [00:01:10]
Drill beat him down[00:01:13]
He'd die with the hammer in his hand[00:01:15]
Lord lord he'd die[00:01:18]
With the hammer in his hand[00:01:19]
John Henry went to the tunnel[00:01:23]
Drive steam drill was by his side[00:01:26]
Before he would let that steam[00:01:31]
Drill beat him down[00:01:34]
He laid down his hammer[00:01:35]
And he cried Lord Lord[00:01:37]
He laid down his hammer[00:01:40]
And he cried[00:01:41]
John Henry went up on the mountain[00:02:04]
And he looked down on the other side[00:02:08]
And the last words[00:02:12]
I heard poor old John Henry said[00:02:13]
A cool drink of water[00:02:17]
Before I die Lord Lord[00:02:18]
Cool drink of water before I die[00:02:21]
John Henry had a little woman[00:02:25]
And her name was Polly Ann[00:02:29]
And the last words[00:02:33]
I heard poor old John Henry said[00:02:34]
Polly drive that steel[00:02:37]
Like a man Lord Lord Polly[00:02:39]
Drive that steel like a man[00:02:42]
