The Ballad of John Henry (Live) - Joe Bonamassa

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 why i'm gone Take this hammer carry it to the Captain, Tell him i'm goin' 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 ... Get the hammer that killed John Henry, Won't kill me no more Gimme the hammer that killed John Henry, Cos it won't kill me Gimme the hammer that killed John Henry, Cos 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 goin' home Take this hammer carry it to the Captain, Tell him why i'm gone I'm a wanted man with the Captain I'm a wanted man in the shackles I'm a wanted man in the shackles I'm a wanted man ... Who killed John Henry, In the battle of sinners and saints Who killed John Henry, In the battle of sinners and saints Ohhhh Ohhhhhhh I killed John Henry, In the battle of sinners and saints Ohhhh Ohhhhhhhhh

She won't drive a Cadillac unless it's new She says gold is just a place to put my jewel I work double shifts for one more pair of shoes This livin' easy's getting hard to do My daddy said never spend more than you make And that advice I've always tried to take 'Til the day you walked into the room Now livin' easy's getting hard to do Keep it simple Man I'm trying Start out lovin' End up cryin' Loan me a dollar Some common sense Can't pay these credit cards on good looks and regrets Put a million in the bank but you need two Cause a man's gotta do what he's gotta do I'm going back to bustin' ass and singing blues This livin easy's getting hard to do Keep it simple Man I'm tryin' Start out lovin' End up cryin' Loan me a dollar Some common sense Can't pay these credit cards on good looks and regrets Put a tombstone in the back yard one day Hand carved under my name it will say Here lies a man who found out far too soon This livin' easy's gotten way too hard to do 'Til the day that you walked into the room This livin easy's getting hard to do
