Mountain Rain

All the miles stacked
Like a millionaire's money
But I can't get 'em back
And I'm sorry for that honey
There's tracks behind my feet
Mud up to my knees
Working with John Henry
But he's so hard to please
He's so hard to please
Down around the bend
With a West Virginian

Hammer in the morning
Hammer in the mountain rain
John had a nine pound hammer
Died with it in his hand
Never did see the light
Light at the tunnel's end
Light at the tunnel's end
All the miles stacked
Like a millionaire's money
But I can't get 'em back
And I'm sorry for that honey
I'm sorry for that honey
