Take this hammer, give it to the captain
Tell him why I'm gone
Take this hammer, give it to the captain
Tell him I'm going home
I don't want your cold iron shackles around my leg
Don't want your cold iron shackles around my leg
Who killed John Henry?

I'm a long way from Colorado
Long way from my home
Give me the hammer that killed John Henry
'Cause he won't kill no more
Give me the hammer that killed John Henry
'Cause he won't kill me
Give me the hammer that killed John Henry
'Cause he won't kill
Who killed John Henry?

Take this hammer, give it to the captain
Tell him why I'm going home
Take this hammer, give 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
