Lyrics Jackhammer John (Remastered) - The Weavers
Jackhammer
John
was
a
jackhammer
man,
Born
with
a
jackhammer
in
his
hand.
Lord,
Lord
And
he
had
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
built
your
roads
and
buildings
too,
And
I′m
gonna
build
a
damn
or
two.
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
had
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
was
borned
in
Portland
town,
Built
every
port
from
Alasky
down;
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
Built
your
bridges,
dug
your
mines,
Been
in
jail
a
thousand
times.
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
Jackhammer,
jackhammer,
where
ya
been?
Been
out
a-chasin'
them
gals
again;
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
Jackhammer
man
from
a
jackhammer
town,
I
can
hammer
till
the
sun
goes
down,
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
hammered
on
the
boulder,
hammered
on
the
butte,
Columbia
River
on
a
five-mile
chute;
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
Workin′
on
the
Bonneville,
hammered
all
night
A-tryin'
to
bring
the
people
some
electric
light,
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
hammered
on
Bonneville,
Coulee
too,
Always
broke
when
my
job
was
through,
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
hammered
on
the
river
from
sun
to
sun,
Fifteen
million
salmon
run;
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
hammered
in
the
rain,
I
hammered
in
the
dust,
I
hammered
in
the
best
and
I
hammered
in
the
worst;
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
a
jackhammer
gal
just
as
sweet
as
pie,
And
I'm
a-gonna
hammer
till
the
day
I
die,
Lord,
Lord,
well
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
I
got
them
jackhammer
blues.
