Yeah!
Johnny his old Captain
'Man, you go downtown
Bring me the nine pounds hammer'
I got to this steel on down
I got to drive steel on down

You see, Johnny's
Hit the boiler
The hammer caught on
Now, the last word I
The boy say
'I want a cool drink 'fore I die'
'Yeah, a drink a-water 'fore I die'

Yeah, wife
She that Johnny was dead
And she have stayed in bed
Oh, now mornin'

She said, I'm g'wine where my man dead
'Yeah! I'm where my man fell dead'

('Look out!')

Woo-ha! Woo-ha! Woo!

Woo! Woo!

A new dress (say)
And it was trimmed in
(Pretty thing)
Yeah, the were the words

'Honey, I been to you'
'Yeah, honey I been to you'

Well, carried Little John
To the (boys, listen)

Now, the last the words
If you hear me, oh
'Oh my husband, he is dead and
That's she said
She said, 'My husband, he is and gone'
'Yeah, my he is dead and gone'

Yeah, when Henry was a baby
You could hold him in the paddles of hand
When everytime they'd rock him,
(They say 'He sho' be a little man')
('Yeah, he gon' be a little man')

Yeah, who buy yo' pretty shoes then?
And who roll yo' cheek?

She said, 'My daddy gonna buy my lil'
And John Henry gonna roll my
And John gonna roll my cheek
(That it said)
A-John Henry roll my cheek.
