Luyện nghe bài hát John Henry

John Henry, he was a baby
on his mammy's knee
Picked up an hammer in his right hand
Said, "Hammer be the of me, me, me
Hammer be the of me"

Some say born in Texas
Some say born up in Maine
I just say he was a man
Leader of a steel-driving chain
Leader on a steel-driving

Well, the Captain said to Henry
"I'm gonna bring my drill around
bring my steam drill out on the job
Gonna whup that on down, down, down
Whup steel on down"

John Henry to the Captain
(What he say?)
"You can your steam drill around
You can your steam drill out on the job
I'll beat steam drill down, down, down
Beat steam drill down"

Henry said to his Shaker
"Shaker, you had better
If you miss your six of steel
be your buryin' day, day, day
I'll be buryin' day"

Now, the Shaker said to Henry
(Yes sir)
"Man ain't but a man
(No he ain't)
But before I'd let that drill beat me down
(I him)
I'd die with an hammer in my hand, hand,
(I him)
I'd die an hammer in my hand"

John Henry had a woman
Her name was Anne
John Henry took and was laid up in bed
While Polly handled steel a man, man, man
Polly steel like a man

They John Henry to the graveyard
Laid him down in the
Every comin' a-rolling by
Hollered, there a steel-drivin' man, man, man
lies a steel-drivin' man
There a steel-drivin' man, man, man
There lies a man
