Lyrics:
When John Henry was a little bitty boy
He picked up a hammer in his hand
Looked up at his mama and smilingly said
I want to be a steel drivin' man
Henry the Octopus at Christmas time
He likes to help Santa Claus out
Henry's the champion Christmas wrapper
He makes us sing and shout
Wrapping
John Henry was about three days old,
Sittin' on his papa's knee.
He picked up a hammer and a little piece of steel;
Said, "Hammer's gonna be
Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller
Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller
Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller
Marilyn Monroe didn't
Tonight I'll serve a supper,
We'll eat some food that's rare.
And at the head of the table,
I'll place brother Henry's chair-
Invite all
John Henry, when he was a baby
Settin' on his mammy's knee
Picked up an hammer in his little right hand
Said, "Hammer be the death of me, me, me
John Henry, when he was a baby
Settin' on his mammy's knee
Picked up an hammer in his little right hand
Said, "Hammer be the death of me, me, me
Every year along about this time it all goes dry
There's nothing round for love or money
That'll get you high
Henry got pissed off and said he'd
HENRY and another one bites the dust
But why can I not conquer love?
And I might've thought that we were one
Wanted to fight this war without weapons
John Henry was just a little bitty boy
No bigger than the palm of your hand
His mammy looked down at John Henry and say
Johnny you're gonna be
When John Henry was just a little bitty boy no bigger than the palm of your hand
His mommy looked down at John Henry and say
Well Johnny you're gonna
Who'll save the poor little girl? Henry Darger
Who'll save the poor little girl? Henry
Who'll tell the story of her? Henry Darger
Who'll tell it
This is a song about Henry
Henry loaded up his magnum
And he went up downtown
Steve was messing with his girlfriend
He went to shoot 'em both down
We must let the clamp do what the clamp does best
I know you're coming home Henry
Just tell me when
We must let the clamp do what the clamp does
Better watch what you're doing Henry you
Better take it easy sheriff
Somebody might be watching and the world's
Going to fall on you
And the world's
sleeping?
Are you sleeping?
Brother John, brother John
Morning bells are ringing
Morning bells are ringing
Ding, ding, dong
Ding, ding, dong
Eliza
Yes Henry
like the rains are hear to stay
And the rain pissed down upon me
And washed me all away
Saying
Papa won't leave you, Henry
Papa won't leave you, Boy
Henry:
Hey.
Natalie:

I've missed you these days.
I thought you might call—
It's been weeks.
Natalie:

Henry:

A man named John Henry
Working on the rails
Drove the steel faster
Than anyone could tell
But the boss man done hired
A strange new machine
Would put
Oh
Oh
Killa
Oo

Henry's taking all the pain
He's never gonna be the same
Taking drugs to waste away
Heartbroken many times today
Henry's
Standing with his arms crossed
(here comes Henry)
passing out that party dust
(here comes Henry)
Here comes Henry he don't talk too much
always
Henry hedgehog wants a hug
Henry hedgehog wants a hug
Henry hedgehog wants a hug
Aint nobody wants to hug Henry
He is not that scary
He is not that
King Henry, King Henry
Is this Halloween?
Can you believe that we've seen so much in a day?
King Henry, King Henry
Will you deceive
Lady Boleyn if
John Henry when he was a baby
Settin' on his mammy's knee
Picked up an hammer in his little right hand
Said "Hammer be the death of me me me,
