John Henry Split My Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I stood on the 66 Hwy
Wysteria, Magnolia beside the green line track
Said: Don't Come Back
I found myself standing on the mountain
Beneath my full moon heart
John Henry split this heart split this full moon heart
Swing the heaviest hammer you got
Hit this one out of the park
He says: Boy what you going to do
With your heart in two?
If it's good enough
But only if its good enough
Half I'm going to use
To pay this band
Half I'm saving because I'm going to owe them
