この曲の歌詞
This song is dedicated
to all the hard working
pioneers of this country,
settin' out discovering
the west, bringing the
railroad to where no man
has ever been before.
Johnny he worked on a railroad
Building on iron and steel
Working his way out west now
The only sure
thing's his next meal
America was young
But she was a grownin'
Laying tracks across a prairie
Not knowing where they're going
His mama didn't want him leaving
But now he's heading out west
She said please don't go
But he said if I
don't I'll never rest
It wasn't always easy
Some of the boys died
Johnny wrote her letters
But he received no reply
Johnny he worked on a railroad
Building on iron and steel
Working his way out west now
The only sure
thing's his next meal
Johnny reached San Francisco
Tired and broke without a dime
Started panning for gold
Just a hopin' he would find
The gold wasn't a rushin'
But Johnny kept on mining
Trying to send
his mama something
With the letters he was signing
Then one day Johnny
finally got a reply
When he opened mama's
letter he began to cry
She was writing
from her death bed
And this is what she said
Please don't be mad at me son
'Cause tomorrow I'll be dead
Johnny he worked on a railroad
Building on iron and steel
Working his way out west now
The only sure
thing's his next meal
