Walk on Boy Songtext
von Doc & Richard Watson

I was born one morning
The rain a pourin′ down,
heard my mammy say to my pappy
Let's call him John Henry Brown

Walk on boy, walk on down the road
Ain′t nobody in this whole wide world
A gonna help you carry load


I left my mammy and pappy
Just about the age of ten
Lord I got me a job a workin' men
Totin' water for the hard workin′ men

One day my pappy told me
Some advice I wanna give to you
Son, find a good woman, be good to her
Ah she′s gonna be good to you

If anyone should ever ask you
Just who is that fella Brown
You can tell him I'm the boy
Who left his hammmer smokin′
where he beat that steam drill down
