Verse 1
Eb
When John Henry was a little baby,
he was sittin' on his
mammy's knees.
Well, he stuck out his hand
and he grabbed a piece of steel
and said,
It's gonna be the death of me.
Well, it's gonna be the death of me.
John Henry told his cabin.
Well a man ain't nothing but a man
and before I let this steam
drill beat me down
I'll die with this hammer in my hand.
Well, I'll die with
Verse 2
this hammer in my hand
Eb
John Henry said to his shaker,
well now shaker
why don't you sing,
cause I'm throwing nine pounds
from my hips on down,
just listen to the cold steel ring,
boy just listen to the cold steel ring.
John Henry said to his shaker,
Well now shaker,
why don't you pray?
Cause if my hammer miss that little piece of steel,
Tomorrow be your bearing day,
Some said he was born in Texas
Some said he was born in Maine
But I don't give a damn
where that poor boy was born
He was a steel -driving man
Lord, now,
he was a steel -driving man
John Henry said to his shaker,
Well now shaker, why don't you sing?
Cause I'm throwing nine pounds
from my hips on down
Just listen to the cold steel ring
Boy, just listen to the cold steel ring
Then the captain said to John Henry,
I believe the mountain's sinking in
John Henry laughed at his captain
and said,
It ain't nothing but my hammer
sucking wind
It ain't nothing but
my hammer sucking wind
Then they took John Henry
to the graveyard
And they buried him in the sand
Yes, and every locomotive
come rollin' by
Said Valet's a steel -drivin' man
Outro 1
Lord now, Valet's a steel -drivin' man
Eb
