John Henry was a steel driving man 
Yes he went down 
Well he went down 
 
You just take this hammer and carry it to my captain 
Oh tell him I'm gone 
Won't you tell him I'm gone 
 
John Henry, he left his hammer 
Layin' aside the road 
Layin' aside the road 
 
John Henry, he left his hammer 
All painted in red 
All painted in red 
 
You just take this hammer and carry it to my captain 
Yes tell him I'm gone 
Won't you tell him I'm gone 
 
This is the hammer that killed John Henry 
But it won't kill me 
No it won't kill me 
 
I walked all the way from East Colorado 
Baby that's my home 
Honey that's my home 
That's where I'm goin' 
 
You just take this hammer and carry it to my captain 
Oh tell him I'm gone 
Won't you tell him I'm gone
