Luyện nghe bài hát Legend Of John Henry's Hammer

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

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

John Henry's mammy had a dozen babies
John Henry's pappy broke jail about a dozen
The babies all got and when the doctor wanted money
He said, "I'll pay you a quarter at a time starting
the pay for a steel driver 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 hoist a jack I can lay a I can pick and shovel too."
He said "Can you a hammer" He said "do anything you hire me to."

"Now ain't you something! So high and mighty with all muscle!"
Go ahead, boy. up that hammer, and show me what you can do!"

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

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

Well now John hammered in the mountains
He'd a grunt he give a groan every swing
The women-folks from miles around him and come down
To watch make the cold-steel ring "Lord! a swinger!
Watch him make the ring"

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

John Henry said, "I four little brothers
And baby sisters' walkin' on her
Now did the say that machines ought to take place of the livin'?
And what's a for bread and beans? I ain't seen it!
Do engines get rewarded for steam?

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

There was a big crowd of at the mountain.
John Henry said to the steam-drill "How is
Said me, Mister Steamdrill I suppose you didn't hear me.
I said how are you
Can you turn a jack? Can you lay a track? Can you and shovel too?
Listen, hammer-swinger's talkin' to you.

Two-thousand hollered, "Go John Henry!"
Then somebody hollered," The cavin' in!"
John Henry told the captin, "Tell the not to worry
It ain't but my hammer suckin' wind, it keeps me breathin'
This muscle it ain't thin.

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

Now, John had a little woman
I believe the lady's name was Paulie Ann that was his good woman
John Henry threw his hammer over his shoulder and went on
Early next he said,
"Come here Paulie Ann, here sugar.
Said you know I been laying here, watching sun come up
And I believe this is the first I've seen the sun come up
That I come up with it
He said, (dirty mind),
He said take hammer, Paulie Ann and go to that railroad
And you swinging with that 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.
no machine can that's been proved to you!

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

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

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

Yonder a steel-drivin'

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