Walk On Boy

I was born one morning
Rain was falling down
I heard my mammy say to my papy
Let's call this boy John Henry Brown

Walk on boy, walk on down the road
There ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Gonna help you carry your load
Walk on boy

Well, I left home one evening
Just about the age of ten
Got me a job on the levee
Totin' water to the hard workin' men

Walk on boy, walk on down the road
There ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Gonna help you carry your load
Walk on boy

Well, the rich men make all the money
The poor boy do all the work
Rich man live mighty high on the hog
But the poor man live on the dirt

Walk on boy, walk on down the road
There ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Gonna help you carry your load
Walk on boy

Well, my old pappy told me
Just one thing to do
Find a good woman, be good to her
And she's gonna be good to you

Walk on boy, walk on down the road
There ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Gonna help you carry your load
Walk on boy

Now you all heard this story 'bout the hammer
That weighed nine pounds
The cat what swung it way up on the mountain
Was the name of John Henry Brown

Walk on boy, walk on down the road
There ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Gonna help you carry your load
Walk on boy...
