《John Henry》歌词

[00:00:00] John Henry - Lonnie Donegan

[00:00:03] Well John Henry told his little woman

[00:00:07] Honey cook my supper soon

[00:00:11] I've got ninety miles of track

[00:00:13] I'm going to line

[00:00:15] Gonna line them by the light of the moon

[00:00:19] Gonna line them by the light of the moon

[00:00:23] John Henry was a steel driver

[00:00:25] He was the best in the land

[00:00:26] And he'd die with his hammer in his hand

[00:00:28] I'll tell you all about him now

[00:00:30] Well John Henry told his captain

[00:00:34] You know a man ain't nothing but a man

[00:00:38] But before I let your steam drill beat me down

[00:00:42] Gonna die with my hammer in my hand

[00:00:46] Gonna die with my hammer in my hand

[00:00:49] John Henry told to his captain

[00:00:53] You know a man ain't nothing but a man

[00:00:56] But before I let your steam drill beat me down

[00:01:00] Gonna die with my hammer in my hand

[00:01:04] Gonna die with my hammer in my hand

[00:01:08] John Henry had another woman

[00:01:11] And the dress that she wore was red

[00:01:15] Oh she studies up the track lord she never looked back

[00:01:18] I'm going where John Henry lies dead

[00:01:22] I'm going where John Henry lies dead

[00:01:26] John Henry went down to Washington

[00:01:30] In the bed them in the sand

[00:01:33] And the people from the East and people from the west

[00:01:37] Ain't seen such a steel driving man

[00:01:41] Ain't seen such a steel driving man

[00:01:44] But if some say he's from England

[00:01:48] And some say he's from France

[00:01:52] No he's nothing but a Louisiana man

[00:01:56] A leader of the steel driving gang

[00:01:59] A leader of the steel driving gang
