(William "Smokey" Robinson) 
John Henry was born
At the crack of dawn
His mama named Henry
And a daddy named John
His daddy predicted that
Well, John Henry was a little baby
Sittin' on his dady's knee
He pick up a hammer and a little piece of steel,
And cried, "Hammer's gonna be
John Henry was about three days old,
Sittin' on his papa's knee.
He picked up a hammer and a little piece of steel;
Said, "Hammer's gonna be
John Henry was about three days old,
Sittin' on his papa's knee.
He picked up a hammer and a little piece of steel;
Said, "Hammer's gonna be
John Henry was about three days old,
Sittin' on his papa's knee.
He picked up a hammer and a little piece of steel;
Said, "Hammer's gonna be
JOHN HENRY

Well-well, the 'right-left' that Joe Louis was usin'
Hoo-well, man

Settin' on his mammy's knee
Picked up an hammer in his little right hand
Said, "Hammer be the death of me, me, me

Probably write a song about it.

The whole world smelled like burning tires the day John Henry died.

We knew about that big machine that ran on human

And take that hammer, It'll do anything you tell it to."

John Henry's mammy had about a dozen babies

And take that hammer, It'll do anything you tell it to."

John Henry's mammy had about a dozen babies
