Long Description: John Henry, Childrens Music, Childrens English Vocals, production music, commerical music and online music library
Keywords: John Henry, Ideascapes Music, Mythical railroad worker John Henry, train, railroad, hammer, The night was black, the moon was red
There were no stars in the sky
A hounddog bayed, cayotes howled
Let me tell you why
Lightning bolted from the clouds
Thunder pounded the earth
The trees, they started to quiver on the evening of John Henry's birth
His voice was deep, his arms were strong
Took a hammer in his hand
His mammy and his pappy knew from the start
That he'd be a steel drivin' man
Can't you hear those hammers ring
Can't you hear the song they sing
Ain't no other sound so fine
John Henry was a friend of mine
Can't you hear those hammers ring
Can't you hear the song they sing
Ain't no other sound so fine
John Henry was a friend of mine
He married pretty Polly, but he could not settle down
Together they roamed West Virginia
For the C&O he was bound
Captain Tommy took on look at John
Gonna make you a steel drivin' man
John Henry started swingin'
Twelve pound hammers in each of his hands
Word spread like wildfire 'bout this giant of a man
His reputation grew near and far
All across the land
Can't you hear those hammers ring
Can't you hear the song they sing
Ain't no other sound so fine
John Henry was a friend of mine
He never seemed to tire, his work made him feel proud
Swingin' those hammers up and down
The ring was steel was so loud
John took on a challenge against a steam drillin' machine
Breakin' rock for nine hours, a feat like you've never seen
And though John Henry won the match
He dropped to the ground
Took his hammers to heaven
Yes, he was glory bound
Can't you hear
Can't you hear those hammers ring
Can't you hear the song they sing
Ain't no other sound so fine
John Henry was a friend of mine
Can't you hear those hammers ring
Can't you hear the song they sing
Ain't no other sound so fine
John Henry was a friend of mine
