The Ballad of John Henry

The Ballad of John Henry - Joe Bonamassa

Who killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints

Who killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints

Take this hammer carry it to the Captain

Tell him why I'm gone

Take this hammer carry it to the Captain

Tell him I'm goin' home

I don't want your cold iron shackles around my leg

I don't want your cold iron shackles around my leg

Who killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints

Who killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints

I'm a long way from Colorado

A long way from my home

Get the hammer that killed John Henry

Won't kill me no more

Give me the hammer that killed John Henry

Cos it won't kill me

Give me the hammer that killed John Henry

Cos it won't kill me

Who killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints

Who killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints

Take this hammer carry it to the Captain

Tell him why I'm gone

Take this hammer carry it to the Captain

Tell him I'm goin' home

I'm a wanted man in the shackles

I'm a wanted man with the Captain

I'm a wanted man in the shackles

I'm a wanted man

Who killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints

Who killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints

I killed John Henry

In the battle of sinners and saints
