Текст песни "John Henry" |
 (arr. Johnny Cash)
Well John Henry was a little bitty boy no bigger than the palm of your hand
His mama looked down at John Henry and said
The Little Johnny gonna be a steal drivin' man Lord lord
Johnny gonna be a steal drivin' man
When John Henry was just a little baby sittin' on his mama's knee
He picked up a hammer and a little bitty piece of steel and said
Hammer gonna be the death of me Lord Lord
This hammer gonna be the death of me
John Henrysaid to his Captain hey now Captain why don't you swing
I'm swingin' twenty-nine pounds from the hips on down
I love to hear that cold steel ring Lord Lord
I love to hear that cold steel ring
[ guitar ]
Well now John Henry went down to the tunnel to drive big steam drill by his side
But he beat that steam drill to the top of the hill
And then he laid down his hammer and he died Lord Lord
He laid down his hammer and he died
And they took John Henry to the graveyard laid him six feet under the sand
And every steam locomotive comes rushin' by
Says yonder lies a steel drivin' man Lord Lord yonder lies a steel drivin' man
They say yonder lies a steel drivin' yonder lies a steel drivin'
Yonder lies a steel drivin' yonder lies a steel drivin' man
They say yonder lies a steel drivin'...
They say yonder lies a steel drivin'...
