WALK ON BOY
Doc Watson

I was born one mawnin'
The rain a-pourin' down
Heard my mammy say to my pappy
Let's call him John Henry Brown.

CHORUS
Walk on, boy
Walk on down the road
Ain't no one in the whole wide world
Gonna help you carry your load.

I left my mammy and pappy
At just about the age of ten
Lord, I got me a job workin' on the levee
Totin' water for the hard workin' men.

CHORUS

One day my pappy told me
Some advice I wanta give to you
Son, find a good woman, be good to her
And she's gonna be good to you.

CHORUS

If anyone ever should ask you
Just who is that fellow, Brown
You can tell 'em I'm the boy that left his hammer smokin'
Where he beat that steam drill down.

CHORUS
