John henry lives — текст песни (Laura Veirs)

Hear the whistle blow far off in the still night without stars see the tracks laid flat
With a hammer`s might they`re the spike driver`s scars they`re the spike driver`s scars

By the railroad ties there a hammer lies it`s all painted in red it`s all painted in red it`s all painted in red

The west springs up from the spike driver`s blues
And the captain`s new shiny shoes take to him this hat
And hammer and tell him i`m gone i`m gone i`m gone i`m gone i`m gone

By the railroad ties there a hammer lies it`s all painted in red it`s all painted in red it`s all painted in red
