They met like some soldiers do
Is that me, baby is that you
Like this all got started
Long before he longing for thee
This is a song about John fucking Henry
That’s how it goes
That’s how it goes
This is a song about Henry fucking John
That’s how it goes
That’s how it goes
That’s just how it goes
Well John and Henry said to they captain
A man ain’t nothin’ but a man
And John and Henry said to they captain
I’m gonna die with that man in my hand
But that can’t be news, it’s always been true
Rob the coins from their eyes and buy a clue
Am I right am I right am I right
Right on
And that hammer that crushed
Them before us
Can take the bus
Can take the bus
Oh yea that hammer that crushed
Them before us
It makes me fuss
Yea it makes me c-c-c-cuss
In this song about John fucking Henry
That’s how it goes
That’s how it goes
This is a song about Henry fucking John
That’s how it goes
That’s how it goes
That’s just how it goes
They met like some soldiers do
Is that me, baby is that you
They met like some soldiers do
Is that me, baby is that you
In this song about John fucking Henry
That’s how it goes
That’s how it goes
This is a song about Henry fucking John
That’s how it goes
That’s how it goes
That’s just how it goes
