verse 1 
Am             E7 
I was born one mornin', 
    Am             E7 
The rain a-pourin' down, 
Am       Am/G  C         F 
Heard my mammy say to my pappy, 
       E7            Dm/F  Am 
"Let's call him John Henry Brown." Walk on boy. 

Am      Am/G     E7 
Walk on down the road 
Am      Am/G         C          F 
Ain't nobody in this whole wide world 
        E7       Dm/F       Am 
A-gonna help you carry your load.

Totin' water for the hard workin' men. Walk on boy.
