Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Walk on, boy

[Verse 2]
[Am]I was born one mornin'
Rain was pourin' [E]down
I [Am]heard my mammy say
[Dm]to my pappy
"Let's [Am]call him John
Henry [E]Brown"
Walk on, [Am]boy
(Walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 3]
Walk on down [B]the road[E]
[Am]Ain't nobody in the [Dm]whole wide world
Gonna [Am]help you carry your load
Walk on, boy
(Walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 4]
Well, [Am]I left home one evenin'
Just about the age of [E]ten
[Am]Got me a job way d[Dm]own on the levee
Totin' water [Am]to the hard
[E]workin' [G#]men[E]
Walk [Am]on, boy
(Walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 5]
Walk on down [E]the road
[Am]Ain't nobody in the [Dm]whole wide world
Gonna [Am]help you carry your load
[G#]Walk [Am]on, boy
(Walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 6]
The [Am]rich man makes all the money
The poor man does all the [E]work
While the [Am]rich man's livin'
mighty [Dm]high on a horse
Well, [Am]the poor boys are livin' on [E]dirt
Walk on, [F]boy[Am]
(Walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 7]
Walk on down the [E]road
[Am]Ain't nobody in the [Dm]whole wide world
Gonna [Am]help you carry your load
Walk on, boy
(Walk, [Bbm]walk, walk, walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 8]
[Bbm]My old pappy told me just one thing to do[F]
You gotta [Bbm]find a good woman,
be [Ebm]good to her
And she [Bbm]gonna be [F]good to you
Walk on, [Bbm]boy
(Walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 9]
Walk on down the [F]road
[Bbm]Ain't nobody in the [Ebm]whole wide world
Gonna [Bbm]help you carry your load
Walk on, boy
(Walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 10]
I [Bbm]know y'all heard the story
'Bout the hammer that
weighed nine [F]pound
Well, the [Bbm]man that swung that
[Eb]ham mer on the m[Ebm]ountain
[Eb]Was a [Bbm]fella named John H[F]enry B[Bbm]rown
[G#]Walk on, [Bbm]boy
(Walk, walk, walk)

[Verse 11]
Walk on down the [F]road
[Bbm]Ain't nobody in the [Ebm]whole wide world
Gonna [Bbm]help you carry your load
Walk on, [Bbm]boy

[Verse 12]
(Walk, walk, walk)
[Bbm]Just keep on walkin'
(Walk, [Bbm]walk, walk, walk, walk, walk)
Feet draggin', back achin',
(Walk, walk, walk)
But keep on walkin'
