John Henry's demise @ Gardner, Ma.

Well every Monday morning
When a bluebird he began to sing
You could hear John Henry from a mile or more
You can hear John Henry's hammer ring
Now the captain he said to John Henry
I'm gonna bring that steam hammer around
John says, "'fore I'll let your steam hammer beat me down
I'm gonna hammer myself to death, Lord, Lord
I'll hammer my fool self to death"
