    艺人:Justin Townes Earle

    作曲:Earle

    歌词:
    Well, when John Henry died, he lay lookin' at the sun
    He said "Lord, take me now my work is done", Lord, Lord
    "Lord, take me now my work is done"
    Yeah, but when they laid him out in that box of pine, boy
    They laid that hammer by his side, Lord, Lord
    Laid that hammer by his side

    Yeah, and Joe Hill, he'd work any job he could find, boy
    He'd rake your leaves and pick your vine, Lord, Lord
    Rake your leaves and pick your vine
    Yeah and they killed Joe Hill, put a bullet to his name
    But that bullet made a martyr of the slain, Lord, Lord
    Bullet made a martyr of the slain

    Yeah, and my grandaddy worked his whole damn life
    Well, he never saved a nickel though he tried, Lord, Lord
    Never saved a nickel though he tried
    And he died in Tennessee but he couldn't find no rest
    With that long road to Texas lie ahead, Lord, Lord
    That long road to Texas lie ahead

    Yessir, I ain't no great man, and Lord I expect
    To see a long life workin' in your debt, Lord, Lord
    A long life workin' in your debt

    They killed John Henry, they killed John Henry
    They killed John Henry, but they won't kill me, Lord
    They killed John Henry, they killed John Henry
    They killed John Henry, but they won't kill me
