Spike Driver Blues |
| John Henry was a steel drivin' boy |
| But he went down |
| Yes, he went down |
| He went down |
| Take my hammer and give it to the capt’n |
| Boys, tell him I’m gone |
| You can tell him I’m gone |
| Yes, tell him I’m gone |
| This old hammer done kill John Henry |
| And it don’t kill me |
| No it won’t kill me |
| Ain’t gonna kill me |
| It’s a long way from East Colorado |
| Honey, to my home |
| Honey, to my home |
| Honey, to my home |
| John Henry left his hammer |
| All paint' in red |
| All shinin' red |
| John Henry’s dead |
| Take this hammer and carrie it to the capt’n |
| You can tell him I’m gone |
| Boys, tell him I’m gone |
| You’re sure he’s gone |
