[Verse 1]
When John Henry was a little baby boy
Sittin' on his mammy's knee
He picked up a hammer and a piece of cold road steel
Said "Hammer gonna be the death of me, Mama,
A E A
Hammer gonna be the death of me."
[Verse 2]
Now John Henry had a little woman
And her name was Polly Anne
John Henry, he got sick and he had to go to bed
But Polly drove that steel like a man
A E A
Polly drove that steel like a man
[Verse 3]
Now the Captain, he said to John Henry one day,
"John, I think that mountain's caving in!"
But Johnny just grinned up at his captain and said,
"Haus, that ain't nothin' but my hammer suckin'
D7
just a little wind.
A E A
Nothin' but my hammer suckin' wind."

[Verse 4]
Now John Henry drove steel in the mountains
And he drove steel all over this land
Said, "Before I let a steam hammer get the best of me,
Well I'll die with my hammer in my hand.
Child, I'll die with my hammer in my hand."
[Verse 5]
So big John Henry went down to the tunnel to drive
Steam hammer by his side.
Well he beat that big old drill to the end of the tunnel
And then he laid down his hammer and he died,
He laid down his hammer and he died.
[Verse 6]
Well they took John Henry to the graveyard
Stuck him six feet under the sand
Every time that big old freight train goes
D7
chug-a-luggin' down
They say, "Yonder lies a steel driving man.
A E A
Yonder lies a steel driving man."
