Luyện nghe bài hát Legend Of John Henry's Hammer

Anybody got any special for us to do
John
Lemme do Henry then and we'll go...

Johnny pappy woke him up one midnight
He said "Before the comes I wanna tell you," Said "Listen boy
Learn to hoist a and learn to lay a track learn to pick and shovel too
And take hammer, It'll do anything you tell it to."

John Henry's had about a dozen babies
John Henry's pappy jail about a dozen times
The babies all got and when the doctor wanted money
He said, "I'll pay you a quarter at a time starting
That's the pay for a steel on this line."

Then the foreman said, "Hey! Hammer-swinger!
I see you own hammer boy but, what all can them muscles do?" and he said,
"I can a jack I can lay a track I can pick and shovel too."
He said "Can you swing a hammer" He said "do anything you me to."

"Now you something! So high and mighty with all that muscle!"
Go ahead, boy. Pick up that hammer, and show me you can do!"

He said to get a rusted spike and swing it three times
Pay you a nickel a day for every inch you it to
Go on and do you say you can do

With a steel-nosed hammer on a four foot switch
John Henry raised it back 'til it touched his then
The spike through the cross-tie and split it half in two
Thirty-five cents a day for steel
"Sweat, boy! Sweat! Only two more swings!"
"I was born steel"

Well now John Henry in the mountains
give a grunt he give a groan every swing
The women-folks from around heard him and come down
To make the cold-steel ring "Lord! What a swinger!
Watch him make the ring"

But the bad boss came up laughin' at Henry
He said, "You full of vinegar now but you through!
We gonna get a steam drill to do share of drivin'
Then all them muscles gonna do? Huh? John Henry?
Gonna take a bit of vinegar out of you."

John Henry said, "I feed four little
And baby walkin' on her knees
Now did the Lord say that machines ought to take place of the
And a substitute for bread and beans? I ain't seen it!
Do get rewarded for their steam?

John Henry said to his said "A man ain't nothin' but a man
But if you'll bring that 'round I'll beat it fair and honest.
die with that hammer in my hand but, I'll be laughin',
Cause you replace a steel-drivin' man.

There was a big of people at the mountain.
John Henry said to the "How is you?
Said pardon me, Mister Steamdrill I suppose you hear me.
I how are you Huh?
Can you turn a jack? Can you lay a track? Can you pick and too?
Listen, this hammer-swinger's to you.

people hollered, "Go John Henry!"
Then somebody hollered," The cavin' in!"
John told the captin, "Tell the kind-folks not to worry
It ain't nothin' but my hammer suckin' wind, it keeps me
This steel-driver's muscle it thin.

"Captain tell the to move back farther
I'm at the finish line and ain't no
It's so far that it don't got the brains to quit it
When she blows up scatter cross the hills Lord, Lord
When she blows up she'll cross the hills"

Now, Henry had a little woman
I believe the lady's was Paulie Ann yeah that was his good woman
John Henry threw his hammer over his and went on home
next mornin' he said,
"Come here Ann, come here sugar.
Said you know I been laying here, watching that sun up
And I believe this is the first time seen the sun come up
That I couldn't up with it
He said, (dirty mind),
He said take hammer, Paulie Ann and go to that railroad
And when you swinging with lead man
You tell em that's not all I can do. em,
I can a jack and I can lay a track I can pick and shovel too.
Ain't no machine can been proved to you!

There was a big crowd of at the church house
The section hands laid him in the
Trains go by on the rails Henry laid.
They down and take off the hats,
they come to whoreys lynn retsina' his back.
They say,"Mornin' Steel-driver, you was a hammer-swinger."
Then they go on by pickin' up a bit of speed.
clack

Yonder a steel-drivin' man lord lord
Yonder a steel-drivin' man

lies a steel-drivin' man lord lord
Yonder a steel-drivin' man

lies a steel-drivin'

Thank you very
You know John Honey was a real man. He worked on a tunnel in Virginia
Digin' a tunnel for the San railroad.
And he was a mighty big man say
That from his heels, on to the ground he had a stroke of 19 feet
Boy that's a stroke. Wooo that's a long stroke
