Gonna Die With My Hammer In My Hand - Country Nashville
John Henry told his captain
Man ain't nothin' but a man
Before I'd be driven by this old steam drill I'm gonna
Die with my hammer in my hands Lord Lord
Gonna die with a hammer in my hands
John Henry told his captain
Captain how can it be
The big bend tunnel on that c & o road is
Gonna be the death last of me Lord Lord
Gonna be the death of me
John Henry had a little hammer
Handle was made of oak
Every time he hit that rail on the head
Hammer laid just down and broke Lord Lord
Hammer laid just down and broke
John Henry told his shaker
Shaker you better pray
For if I miss this six foot steel
Tommorow'll be your buryin' day Lord Lord
Tomorrow'll be your buryin' day
John Henry had but one only child
Fit in the palm of your hand
The very last words John Henry said
Son don't be a steel drivin' man Lord Lord
Son don't be a steel drivin' man
John Henry had a little woman
Her name was Sally Ann
John Henry got sick and he could not work
Sally drove the steel like a man Lord Lord
Sally drove the steel like a man
