Thank you so much, it's a beautiful evening Thank you so much again for coming Who killed John Henry? In the battle of sinners and saints Who killed John Henry? In the battle of sinners and saints Take this hammer, carry it to the captain Tell him I'm going home Take this hammer, carry it to the captain Tell him I'm going home I don't want your cold iron shackles Around my leg I don't want your cold iron shackles Around my leg Who killed John Henry? In the battle of sinners and saints Who killed John Henry? In the battle of sinners and saints I'm a long way from Colorado A long way from my home Give me the hammer that killed John Henry 'Cause it won't kill no more Give me the hammer that killed John Henry 'Cause it won't kill me Give me the hammer that killed John Henry 'Cause it won't kill me Who killed John Henry? In the battle of sinners and saints Who killed John Henry? In the battle of sinners and saints Take this hammer, carry it to the captain Tell him I'm going home Take this hammer, carry it to the captain Tell him I'm going home I'm a wanted man with the captain I'm a wanted man with the shackles I'm a wanted man with the captain I'm a wanted man With Captain Henry In the Battle of Citizen's Saint Ooh, with Captain Henry In the Battle of Citizen's Saint Oh, with Captain Henry In the Battle of Citizen's Saint
