Songtext von John Henry Lives

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 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 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 It's all painted in red, it's all painted in red, it's all painted in red It's all painted in red, it's all painted in red, it's all painted in red
