CAAMP
"John Henry"
feat. Jesse Henry

These days ain't so easy mama
Gotta watch your back
I take my whiskey straight
Chewin' on pieces from my past
In the day I wouldn't take back

[Chorus:]
And I'm no John Henry, mama
I do my best
With this guitar strapped to my back child
I'm headed west
I'm headed west

Go to sleep when the sun comes up, now
On this deadbeat town
Come alive in the moonlight, mama
When that sun goes down
When that sun goes down

[Chorus:]
And I'm no John Henry, mama
I do my best
With this guitar strapped to my back child
I'm headed west
I'm headed west

[Verse 3 (Jesse Henry):]
Walk away from my grave with these boots still on
Dead soul needs savin', gon' grab my gun
Gonna grab my gun

[Chorus (Jesse Henry):]
And I'm no John Henry, mama
I do my best
With this guitar strapped to my back child
I'm headed west
I'm headed west

[Chorus (Taylor Meier and Jesse Henry):]
And I'm no John Henry, mama
I do my best
With this guitar strapped to my back child
I'm headed west
I'm headed west
I'm headed west
I'm headed west
I'm headed west
I'm headed west
I'm headed west

[Outro:]
I'm headed west
