John Henry (Songs of the Brazos Valley)歌词完整版
John Henry - Hank Thompson
John Henry was just a little bitty boy
No bigger than the palm of your hand
His Mammy looked down at
Henry and say
Johnny you're gonna be a steal drivin' man Lord Lord
Johnny you're gonna be a steal drivin' man
John Henry he said to his
Captain captain I wanna hear you sing
I'll swing forty nine pounds from my hips on down
Like to hear that cold steel ring Lord Lord
Like to hear that cold steel ring
John Henry had a little
Woman and her name was Polly Ann
John Henry he got sick and he had to go to bed
But Polly drove steel like a man Lord Lord
Polly drove the steel like a man
John Henry went to the
Tunnel to drive steam hammer by his side
Well he beat that drill till the end of the tunnel
Laid down his hammer and he cried
Lord Lord laid down his hammer and he cried
John Henry drove steel on
That Mountain till his hammer caught on fire
And the last words we heard John Henry say
Cool drink of water before I die
Lord Lord cool drink of water before I die
Well they took John Henry to the
Graveyard stuck him six feet under the sand
Everytime the freight train that go puffin' by
They say there lies a steel drivin'
Man Lord Lord yonder lies the steel drivin' man
