John henry was born
At the crack of dawn
His mama named henry
And a daddy named john
His daddy predicted that
While john was growin
He would be wild
Like the wind that was blowin
That morn he was born
Was a hurricane
Thunder and lightning
And pouring rain
Hes exciting to see
Like the storm he was born in
He took my heart and soul
Without a warning
So treat me nice
Dont be mean, john henry
Make the girls faces green with envy
And Im gonna give you
All the love thats in me
John henry, john henry
Oh, rock of a man
Youre thrillin me
Ill take your hand
So willingly
Ready to go
Wherever you lead me
Long as I know
Youll always need me
Oh, johnny, you are my hero
Without you my life is a zero
So whether Im happy or in misery
In your arms is where I have to be now
So treat me nice
Dont be mean, john henry
Make the girls faces green with envy
And Im gonna give you
All the love thats in me
John henry, john henry
Henry, you know
Youve got me goin
My love for you
Keeps growing and a growing
Treat me nice
Dont be mean, john henry
Make the girls faces green with envy
And Im gonna give you
All the love thats in me
John henry, john henry
Treat me nice
Dont be mean, john henry
