《John Henry》歌词

[00:00:00] John Henry (约翰·亨利) - Woody Guthrie

[00:00:03] John Henry when he was a baby

[00:00:07] Settin' on his mammy's knee

[00:00:11] Picked up an hammer in his little right hand

[00:00:14] Said "Hammer be the death of me me me

[00:00:18] Hammer be the death of me "

[00:00:22] Some say he's born down in Texas

[00:00:25] Some say he's born up in Maine

[00:00:29] I just say he was a Louisiana man

[00:00:32] Leader of a steel-driving chain gang

[00:00:36] Leader on a steel-driving gang

[00:00:42] "Well" the captain said to John Henry

[00:00:45] "I'm gonna bring my steam drill around

[00:00:49] Gonna whup that steel on the down

[00:00:53] Whup that steel on the down down down

[00:00:56] Whup that steel on down "

[00:01:00] John Henry said to the captain (what he say )

[00:01:03] "You can bring your steam drill around

[00:01:07] Gonna bring your steam drill out on the job

[00:01:10] I'll beat your steam drill down down down

[00:01:14] Beat your steam drill down "

[00:01:18] John Henry said to his Shaker

[00:01:22] "Shaker you had better pray

[00:01:26] If you miss your six feet of steel

[00:01:29] It'll be your buryin' day day day

[00:01:32] It'll be your buryin' day "

[00:01:39] Now the Shaker said to John Henry

[00:01:43] "Man ain't nothing but a man

[00:01:46] But before I'd let that steam drill beat me down

[00:01:49] I'd die with an hammer in my hand hand hand

[00:01:53] I'd die with an hammer in my hand "

[00:01:58] John Henry had a little woman

[00:02:02] Her name was Polly Anne

[00:02:05] John Henry took sick and was laid up in bed

[00:02:08] While Polly handled steel like a man man man

[00:02:12] Polly handled steel like a man

[00:02:15] They took John Henry to the graveyard

[00:02:19] Laid him down in the sand

[00:02:23] Every locomotive comin' a-rolling by

[00:02:26] Hollered "there lies a steel-drivin' man man man

[00:02:29] There lies a steel-drivin' man "

[00:02:33] There lies a steel-drivin' man man man

[00:02:36] There lies a steel-drivin' man "
