I was born with a hammer in my hand

I'd give anything just to hear the cold steel ring
G D G
Cause I was born with a hammer in my hand

Swingin' steel's the only life I've known

Hope my Mama understands I'll always be a working man

Cause I was born with a hammer in my hand
[Verse 3]

John Henry was a steel-drivin' man

Cause I was born with a hammer in my hand

The bossman tries to break a good man's back

It takes thirty men to lay eight miles of track

If the shaker holds the line, they'll be thirty miles behind me

I was born with a hammer in my hand
[Verse 5]
G D G
John Henry was a steel drivin' man

You could hear his hammer ring across the land

But if you put us side by side, he'd have to run and hide
G D G
Cause I was born with a hammer in my hand

Yes I'll die with a hammer in my hand
