John henry when he was a baby[00:00:03]
Settin' on his mammy's knee[00:00:07]

Said hammer be the death of me me me[00:00:15]
Hammer be the death of me[00:00:19]
Said hammer be the death of me me me[00:00:23]
Hammer be the death of me[00:00:27]
Some say he's born in texas[00:00:34]
Some say he's born up in maine[00:00:37]
I just say he was a louisiana man[00:00:41]
Leader of a steel- driving chain gang[00:00:45]
Leader on a steel- driving gang[00:00:49]
Leader of a steel- driving chain gang[00:00:53]
Leader on a steel- driving gang[00:00:57]
Well the captain said to john henry[00:01:02]
I'm gonna bring my steam drill around[00:01:06]
Gonna bring my steam drill out on the job[00:01:10]
Gonna whup that steel on down down down[00:01:13]
Whup that steel on down[00:01:18]
Gonna whup that steel on down down down[00:01:21]
Whup that steel on down[00:01:25]
John henry said to the captain[00:01:30]
What he say[00:01:33]
You can bring your steam drill around[00:01:34]
You can bring your steam drill out on the job[00:01:37]
I'll beat your steam drill down down down[00:01:41]
Beat your steam drill down[00:01:45]
Gonna whup that steel on down down down[00:01:49]
Whup that steel on down[00:01:52]
John henry said to his shaker[00:01:57]
Shaker you had better pray[00:02:01]
If you miss your six feet of steel[00:02:05]
I'll be your buryin' day day day[00:02:08]
I'll be your buryin' day[00:02:12]
Now the shaker said to john henry[00:02:16]
Yes sir[00:02:19]
Man ain't nothing but a man[00:02:22]
No he ain't[00:02:23]
But before I'd let that steam drill beat me down[00:02:24]
I believe him[00:02:26]
I'd die with an hammer in my hand hand hand[00:02:28]
I believe him[00:02:30]
I'd die with an hammer in my hand[00:02:31]
I'd die with an hammer in my hand[00:02:34]
