Luyện nghe bài hát John Henry

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

Some say born in Texas
Some say he's up in Maine
I say he was a Louisiana man
Leader of a steel-driving chain
Leader on a gang

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

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

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

Now, the Shaker to John Henry
(Yes sir)
"Man nothing but a man
(No he ain't)
But before I'd let that steam beat me down
(I him)
I'd die an hammer in my hand, hand, hand
(I him)
I'd die an hammer in my hand"

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

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