Description: John Henry is an African American folk hero. He is said to have worked as a "steel-driving man"—a man tasked with hammering a steel at the Great Bend Tunnel.
The Story of John Henry is where the expression, "See, you can't out-muscle a machine." comes from. It's a story from a time where people did everything. Not anymore most everything is machine made now a day. Example: this video is made electronically.
I understand that I left out the opening line of the John Henry story.
"John Henry was a little baby, sitting on the his papa's knee
He picked up a piece of steel in one hand, and a hammer
(a laborers tool) in the other.
Said "Hammer's gonna be the death of me, Lord, Lord
Hammer's gonna be the death of me"
I would have put it in there. but It's because I didn't have the right kind of footage. So I left it out.
