Thread Name: Lyr Req: John Henry (from Williamson Brothers)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Williamson Brothers' John Henry

I think I'd be happy to go with set in v5.

I've been listening to v3 again (you can't imagine how many filters/time stretches/dynamics I've applied with SoundForge listening to that verse!) and now offer another possibility:

  John Henry had a little hammer,
  Handle was made o' bone.
  Every time he hit the drill on the head,
  Hammer reaches down and groan, Lord, Lord,
  The hammer reaches down and groan.
