You don't want to end up like John Henry. Absolutely. John Henry was a steel-driving man that worked the railroad. Pounding in the spikes and laying down the track. Then one day they invented a machine to do his job, right, and he says, he says, "Fuck that. I'm a man," right? So he challenges the machine to a race to lay down a mile of track, right? It takes two days. They go neck and neck the whole time. I mean right to the end. And he beat the machine by one spike ...but ...he dropped dead, you know?


B-Boom, but he beat it.


Boom, but he dropped dead.
