Luyện nghe bài hát Legend Of John Henry's Hammer

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

Johnny Henry's woke him up one midnight
He said "Before the sheriff comes I wanna tell you," "Listen boy
Learn to hoist a jack and learn to lay a 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 broke 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
the pay for a steel driver on this line."

Then the section said, "Hey! Hammer-swinger!
I see you your own hammer boy but, what all can muscles do?" and he said,
"I can hoist a I can lay a track 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. Pick up that hammer, and show me you can do!"

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

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

Well now John Henry hammered in the
He'd give a grunt he give a groan every
The women-folks from miles around him and come down
To watch make the cold-steel "Lord! What a swinger!
Watch him the cold-steel 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 your of drivin'
Then what's all them muscles do? Huh? John Henry?
Gonna take a little bit of out of you."

John Henry said, "I feed four brothers
And baby walkin' on her knees
Now did the Lord say that 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 their

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

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

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

"Captain tell the people to back farther
I'm at the finish line and no drill
It's so far behind 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 scatter the hills"

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

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