Dave Dudley - John Henry слова песни
When John Henry was just a little bitty boy no bigger than the palm of your handHis mommy looked down at John Henry and sayWell Johnny you`re gonna be a steal drivin` man Lord lordWell Johnny you`re gonna be a steal drivin` manJohn Henry he said to his Captain he said Captain why don`t you learn to swingI`m drivin` forty-nine pounds from my hip on downI love to hear that cold steel ring Lord Lord I love to hear that cold steel ring[ guitar ]John Henry had a pretty little woman and her name was Polly AnnJohn Henry he took sick and he had gone to bedPolly drove the steel like a man Lord Lord but Polly drove the steel like a manJohn Henry went up on that mountain had that steam hammer by his sideWell beat that drill till the end of the lineHe laid down his hammer and he cried Lord Lord he laid down his hammer and he cried[ guitar ]John Henry drove the steel on that mountain till that hammer caught on fireWell the very last words I`d hear ol` John Henry sayCool glass of water I`m gonna die Lord Lord a cool glass of water I`m gonna dieWell they bury John Henry in the graveyard they laid him six feet under the sandEverytime a freight train go a rollin` on byThey say yonder lies a steel drivin` man Lord Lord well yonder lies a steel drivin` man
