  John Henry - Odetta

  John Henry was a little baby

  Sitting on his momma's knee

  Said The Big Bend Tunnel on the C O Road

  Is gonna be the death of me

  Lord Lord

  Be the death of me

  When John Henry was a little baby

  Sitting on his poppa's knee

  He took a hammer a little piece of steel

  Said Hammer's gonna be the death of me

  Lord

  Lord

  Hammer's gonna be the death of me

  John Henry had a little woman

  Her name was Mary Magdalene

  Every day she would sing for John Henry

  Just to hear his hammer when it swing

  Lord Lord

  Just to hear his hammer when it swing

  And now the captain he says to John Henry

  I'm gonna bring that steam drill round

  I'm gonna bring that steam

  Drill out on the job

  I'm gonna whop that steel on down

  Lord Lord

  Steel on down

  John Henry said to his captain

  I know a man ain't nothing but a man

  But before i'll let your steam

  Drill beat me down

  I'll die with my hammer in my hand

  Lord Lord

  I'll die with my hammer in my hand

  John Henry said to his shaker

  Shaker why don't you sing

  And now i'm throwing forty pounds

  From my hip on down

  Listen to the cold steel ring

  Lawdy

  Lawdy

  Listen to the cold steel ring

  John Henry said to his captain

  Looky yonder what i see

  Steam drill broke your hole done choke

  You can't drive steel like me

  Lord

  You can't drive steel like me

  John Henry a working on the mountain

  Hammer was a striking fire

  But he worked so hard it

  Broke his poor heart

  He laid down his hammer and he died

  Lawdy

  He lad down his hammer and he died

  Now momma's gonna shoe

  My pretty little feet

  Poppy gonna glove my hand

  Sister gonna kiss my red ruby lips

  I don't need no man

  Lawdy

  Lawdy

  Not after my steel driving man

  Lawdy

  Lawdy

  Not after my steel driving man
