verse 1
Am             E7
I was born one mornin',
    Am             E7
The rain a-pourin' down,
Am       Am/G  C         F
Heard my mammy say to my pappy,
       E7            Dm/F  Am
"Let's call him John Henry Brown." Walk on boy.

Am      Am/G     E7
Walk on down the road
Am      Am/G         C          F
Ain't nobody in this whole wide world
        E7       Dm/F       Am
A-gonna help you carry your load.
