It was early one mornin' |
|
And it looked like ra-a-ain |
|
When around that curve, boy, |
|
I spied a gravel train. |
|
Oh, my little John Henry-- |
|
He got a mighty know. |
|
Oh, my little John Henry-- |
|
He got a mighty know. |
|
|
|
I got a woman in Dallas-- |
|
Work at the Baker Hotel-- |
|
Some folks call her Maggie, |
|
Real name is Katie Bell. |
|
Oh, my little John Henry-- |
|
He got a mighty know. |
|
Oh, my little John Henry-- |
|
He got a mighty know. |
|
|
|
It was early one mornin'(it was early one mornin') |
|
And it looked like ra-a-ain (oh, it looked like rain) |
|
When around that curve, boy, |
|
I spied a gravel train. |
|
Oh, my little John Henry-- |
|
He got a mighty know. |
|
I said, my little John Henry-- |
|
He got a mighty know. |
|
He got a mighty know. |
|
He got a mighty know. |
|
He got a mighty, mighty know. |
