Lyrics

Oh Johnny, six foot four The baby grew so tall he couldn't grow no more Say don't do this, and don't do that Everybody tellin' him where it's at he said Momma, oh you know it hurts so bad Yeah he said, Momma, oh you know it hurts so bad He was born, a hammer in hand The baddest mother's son in the Promised Land Now drive that steel, drive it hard Won't you drive it on home to the graveyard Oh Johnny, swing that hammer Oh Johnny, swing it right Oh Johnny, swing that hammer Swing it all day, swing it all night Until the Judgment Day See that man against the Machine Working like a one who won't be beat Gonna break my back, have a heart attack But I will not give up I will not but Momma, oh you know it hurts so bad Momma, oh you know it hurts so bad Lord, it hurts so bad Oh John is swingin' it now, Workin' in Heaven on the gospel plow Well now don't do this, I do what I want 'Cause the good Lord treats me right he says Oh Johnny, yeah swing that hammer Oh he says Johnny, won't you swing it right Oh the good, good Lord say Johnny, swing that hammer Swing it all day, oh swing it all night Into the Judgment Day
