Run and Punch

What Goes Around (The Ballad of John Henry)

Little Johnny was a clean cut man, never spoke out of hand.
Had a little wife named Polly Ann.
Spent his day working away on the track, breaking his back
six to five on a tunnel that he wouldn't see survive.

Go, go, Johnny GO,
As fast as you can, with your hammer.
One day you'll be a legendary man.
Go, Johnny.

Contest for the best simple man versus machine.

Sound of hammers in the wind, Johnnys chances looking mighty slim.
Polly Ann waiting at the end, hoping for victory.
Johnny took a left, one last breath, fell himself to death.

Go, go, Johnny GO,
As fast as you can, with your hammer.
One day you'll be a legendary man.
Go, Johnny.
