[Verse 1]
[G]John
Henry was a little baby boy
You could hold him in the palm of your hand
He let out a long and lonesome cry
He said, [F]I'm [C]gonna be a
[G]ste[C]el -driving man[G]
[F]I'm gonna [C]be a steel
[F]-driving [C]man[G]
They took
John
Henry to the tunnel
They put him in the league to drive
The rock was so tall and
John was so small
That he [F]lied [C]down his hammer
an[F]d he c[G]ried
Yes he did now
That he [C]lied down his
hammer and he [G]cried
John
Henry started on the right side
The steam drill started on the left
Before I let that steam drill beat me down
I'll [C]hammer [G]my [C]fool self to death
[G]Yes I will now
I'll [C]hammer my fool self to [G]death
John
Henry told his captain
A man ain't nothin' but a man
Oh, I let your steam drill [D]beat [G]me down
I'll [F]die with this hammer [C]in my hand
[G]Yes, I will now
I'll [F]die with [C]the [F]hammer in my [G]hand
John
Henry had a little woman
Her name was
Polly
Ann
John got sick and he had to go to [C]bed
Polly drove steel like a man,
[G]yes he did now
[F]Polly drove [C]steel [F]like a man[G]
Now the captain told
John
Henry, I believe my tunnel is sinking in
Stand back captain, don't you be afraid
That ain't [C]nothing [F]but [C]my
hammer sucking [G]wind
[C]Ain't nothin' but my
hammer suckin' wind
[G]John
Henry told his captain
Lookey I'm a boy what [Gm]do you see
[G]Your drill done broke and your hole is done
And you [F]can't [C]drive steel like me
[G]And you can[F]'t dri[C]ve steel lik[F]e me[G]
John
Henry hammered in the mountains
Till the handle of his hammer caught fire
He drove so hard till he
broke his poor heart
Then he [F]lied down his hammer and he died
[G]Yes he did, he lie[F]d down his
hammer and [G]he died
You know they took
John
Henry through the tunnel
And they buried him in the sand
And every locomotive come ridin' by
They [C]say there lies a [G]steel [C]-drivin' [G]man
[F]There [C]lies a s[F]tee[C]l -dri[F]vin' man[C][G]
[F]
