When John left home, he went to
work for the railroad. With his
mighty HAMMERS he pounded
away at the mountains, tunneling a
path for the tracks that connected
people around the U.S.
One day the boss of the railroad crew
brought a machine called a steam
drill. "This MACHINE can do the
work better than men," the boss said.
John Henry replied, "Let's have a
CONTEST. Me and my hammers
against your steam drill."
The Big Race
The boss told John Henry to start
digging on the other side of the
mountain. "I'll use the DRILL on this
side. Whoever gets to the middle
John Henry and the steam drill went
at it all day and all night. Early the
next morning, John Henry's TUNNEL
met the one dug by the steam drill.
The boss' jaw dropped in wonder.
John Henry had cut through 15 feet
of solid ROCK; the machine had only
cut through nine!
Those who tell the tale say that John
Henry worked so hard he broke his
heart. When the contest was done,
he laid down his hammer and died.
Some say that to this day, when the
BLUEBIRDS sing, you can hear John
Henry's hammer ring.
