the traditional folk ballad of 'John Henry'.
John Henry was an American folk hero, an African American working on a railway tunnel through the mountains of West Virginia in the early 1870s. He was a "steel-driving man" whose job was to hammer a steel drill into rock to make holes for explosives to blast the rock in constructing a railroad tunnel. According to legend, John Henry's prowess as a steel-driver was measured in a race against a steam-powered rock drilling machine, a race that he won only to die in victory with hammer in hand as his heart gave out from stress.
