Van Morrison - John Henry lyrics

[Van Morrison - John Henry lyrics]

When John Henry was a little baby
Sittin' on his mama's knee
Well he pointed out a feather
And a piece of steel
And said that's steel's gonna be
The death of me lord, lord
Lord that steel's gonna be the death of me

Well John Henry had a little woman
Name of Polly Ann
Well John got sick had to lay down on the bed
You all know, Polly drove steel like a man
Lord, lord, lord
Polly drove steel like a man that's true
John

Well John Henry went up on the mountain
Well the mountain was sinkin' in
He said come on captain I know what I'm doin'
It ain't nothin' but my hammer suckin' wind
Lord, it ain't nothin' but


My hammer suckin' wind

Well John Henry went up on the mountain
Lord the mountain was so high
He said we're gonna shake
This steel drivin' down
Give me a cool drink of water before I die
Give me a cool drink of water before I die
That's right

Well some say that he came from England
Some say that he came from Spain
But John Henry well ain't nothin'
But a Louisiana man
And he died with his hammer in his hand
Lord, lord
He died with his hammer in his hand
Lord, lord
Lord he died with his hammer in his hand
Lord, lord, lord he died with his hammer
Died with his hammer
Died with his hammer in his hand
Yah he died with his hammer
Died with his hammer
Died with his hammer in his hand
Lord, lord, lord he died with his hammer
Steel drivin' man
He died with his hammer in his hand
Play it one time

Lord, it ain't nothin' but
My hammer suckin' wind
It ain't nothin' but my hammer suckin' wind
Lord knows, it ain't nothin' but my hammer
Nothing by my hammer
It ain't nothing but my hammer suckin' wind
Lord, it ain't nothin' but my hammer
Nothin' but my hammer
It ain't nothin' but my hammer suckin' wind
Yeah, it ain't nothin, nothin' but my hammer
Nothin' but my hammer
Lord it ain't nothing but
My hammer suckin' wind
Lord, lord it ain't nothin' but my hammer
No, no, no
Nothin' but my hammer suckin' wind
I swear it ain't nothin' but
My hammer suckin' wind lord, lord
Suckin' wind a-Suckin' wind
A-Suckin' wind a-Suckin' wind
A-Suckin' wind a-Suckin' wind
A-Suckin' wind a-Suckin' wind
A-Suckin' wind a-Suckin' wind
A-Suckin' wind a-Suckin' wind
Nothing but my hammer suckin' wind
Lord, it ain't nothin' but
My hammer a-suckin' wind
