Mountain Rain

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

Down around Big Bend with the West Virginians

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

[Outro]

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
