  • When john henry was a little baby
  • Sittin on his mamas knee
  • Well he picked up a feather and a piece of steel
  • And said thats gonna be the death of me
  • Lord, lord, lord thats gonna be the death of me
  • Well john henry had a little woman
  • Name of polly ann
  • Well john got sick had to lay down on the bed
  • Polly drove steel like a man
  • Lord, lord, lord, polly drove steel like a man
  • Well john henry went up on the mountain
  • Well the mountain was sinkin in
  • He said come on captain I know what Im doin
  • It aint nothin but my hammer suckin wind
  • Lord, lord, lord, it aint nothin but my hammer suckin wind
  • Well john henry went up on the mountain
  • Lord the mountain was so high
  • He said were gonna shake this steel drivin down
  • Give me a cool drink of water before I die
  • Give me a cool drink of water before I die
  • Some say he came from england
  • Some say he came from spain
  • But john henry was nothin but a louisiana man
  • And he died with his hammer in his hand
  • Lord, lord, lord, he died with his hammer in his hand
  • Steel drivin man, he died with his hammer in his hand
  • Lord aint nothin but my hammer suckin wind etc. etc.
