(William Smokey Robinson) John Henry was bornAt the crack of dawnHis mama named HenryAnd a daddy named JohnHis daddy predicted thatWhile John was growin'He would be wildLike the wind that was blowin'That morn he was bornWas a hurricaneThunder and lightningAnd pouring rainHe's exciting to seeLike the storm he was born inHe took my heart and soulWithout a warningSo treat me niceDon't be mean, John HenryMake the girl's faces green with envyAnd I'm gonna give youAll the love that's in meJohn Henry, John HenryOh, rock of a manYou're thrillin' meI'll take your handSo willinglyReady to goWherever you lead meLong as I knowYou'll always need meOh, Johnny, you are my heroWithout you my life is a zeroSo whether I'm happy or in miseryIn your arms is where I have to be nowSo treat me niceDon't be mean, John HenryMake the girl's faces green with envyAnd I'm gonna give youAll the love that's in meJohn Henry, John HenryHenry, you knowYou've got me goin'My love for youKeeps growing and a growingTreat me niceDon't be mean, John HenryMake the girl's faces green with envyAnd I'm gonna give youAll the love that's in meJohn Henry, John HenryTreat me niceDon't be mean, John Henry
