Brothers Four My Little John Henry (Got A Mighty Know)

and it looked like ra-a-ain
when around that curve, boy,
I spied a gravel train.

It was early one mornin'(it was early one mornin')
and it looked like ra-a-ain (oh, it looked like rain)
when around that curve, boy,

I said, my little John Henry--
