Текст песни The Death of John Henry - Ralph Stanley
Listen
in
every
heart
there
burns
a
flame
For
the
love
of
glory
or
the
dread
of
shame
But
oh
how
happy
we
would
be
if
we
understood
There's
no
safety
but
in
doing
good
People
out
west
heard
of
John
Henry's
death
Couldn't
hardly
stay
in
bed
Monday
morning
on
the
east
bound
train
Going
where
John
Henry's
dead
Going
where
John
Henry's
dead
They
carried
John
Henry
to
the
graveyard
They
looked
at
him
good
and
long
The
very
last
words
his
wife
said
to
him
My
husband
he's
dead
and
gone
My
husband
he's
dead
and
gone
John
Henry's
wife
wore
a
brand
new
dress
It
was
all
trimmed
in
blue
The
very
last
words
she
said
to
him
Honey
I
been
good
to
you
Honey
I
been
good
to
you
John
Henry
told
the
Shaker
Lord
shake
while
I
sing
Pulling
a
hammer
from
my
shoulder
Bound
to
hear
her
when
she
rings
Bound
to
hear
her
when
she
rings
John
Henry
told
his
captain
I
am
a
Tennessee
man
Before
I
would
see
that
steam
drill
beat
me
down
Die
with
a
hammer
in
my
hand
Die
with
a
hammer
in
my
hand
John
Henry
hammered
in
the
mountain
Till
the
hammer
caught
on
fire
Very
last
words
I
heard
him
say
Cool
drink
of
water
before
I
die
Cool
drink
of
water
before
I
die
