letra de john henry - woody guthrie & cisco houston
[verse 1]
john henry, when he was a baby
sittin’ on his mammy’s knee
picked up a hammer in his little right hand
said “hammer will be the death of me me me
hammer will be the death of me!”
“hammer will be the death of me me me
hammer will be the death of me!”
[verse 2]
well, some said he’s born down in texas
some said he’s born up in maine
i just said he was a louisiana man
leader of a steel-driving chain gang
leader of a steel-driving gang
leader of a steel-driving chain gang
leader of a steel-driving gang
[verse 3]
now, the captain said to john henry (what did he say?)
“i’m a-gonna bring my steam drill around
gonna bring my steam drill out on this job
and i’m gonna whup that steel on down down down
whup that steel on down”
“i’m gonna whup that steel on down down down
whup that steel on down”
[verse 4]
john henry said to the captain (what did he say?)
“bring your steam drill around
you can bring your steam drill out on the job
i’ll beat your steam drill down down down
beat your steam drill down”
gonna beat your steam drill (yes, i am) down down down
gonna beat your steam drill down”
[verse 5]
john henry said to his shaker
“shaker you had better pray
if you miss your six foot of steel
tomorrow will be your buryin’ day (mr. shaker) day day
tomorrow will be your buryin’ day”
[verse 6]
now the shaker said to john henry
“well, a man ain’t nothin’ but a man
i’m a-throwin’ a hundred pounds from my hips on down
doin’ all that any man can can can
doin’ all that any man can”
“doin’ all that any man can can can
i’m a-doin’ all that any man can”
