The Ballad Of Poor John Henry

Poor John Henry could never prove his worth I sure hope he 
makes it in the end
So frustrated always underrated I sure hope he makes it in 
the end
He wakes up each day always empty handed I sure hope he 
makes it in the end

Do you ever think of me 'cause I'll be thinking of you and 
you'll be thinking of...
Do you ever think of me 'cause I'll be thinking of you and 
you'll be thinking of...
Do you ever think of me 'cause I'll be thinking of you and 
you'll be thinking of...yourself

Poor Mary Ellen ended up with John I sure hope she makes it
 in the end
She works for nothing and nothing works for her I sure hope
 she makes it in the end
John and Mary like so many I sure hope they make it in the 
end

Do you ever think of me 'cause I'll be thinking of you and 
you'll be thinking of...
Do you ever think of me 'cause I'll be thinking of you and 
you'll be thinking of...
Do you ever think of me 'cause I'll be thinking of you and 
you'll be thinking of...yourself
