a little baby. Sittin' on his Daddy's

knee. He gave one long and

lonesome cry, Said, "A hammer

be the death of me..." (sing 2 times)

#2. John Henry told his captain.

Said, "A man ain't nothing but a

man. But before I let your steam

drill beat me down, I'll die with

a hammer in my hand..." (2 times)

#3. Well the man that invented

the steam drill, He thought that he

was mighty fine. But John Henry

drove his steal 15 feet, And the

steam drill drove only nine (2 times)

#4. John Henry kept hammering

on the mountain. There was lightning

in his eyes!! He drove so hard that it

broke his heart And he laid down his

hammer and he died... (2 times)
