The Hatchet Man Songtext
von Deke Dickerson and The Ecco-Fonics

Well I′ve been swingin' so long they call me the hatchet man
Well I′ve been swingin' so long they call me the hatchet man
You can find me in the corner with my hatchet in my hand

I done chopped my way from Maine to Tennessee
I done chopped my way from Maine to Tennessee
You gots to learn how to chop if you wanna get along with me

Now if you got sixty minutes call up lovin' Dan
But if you wanna do some choppin′ call the hatchet man
I′ve been swingin' so long they call me the hatchet man
Well you can find me in the corner with my hatchet in my hand

SOLO-


I′m gonna chop you down
(if you're feelin′ blue)
I'm gonna chop you down
(If you axe me to)
I′m gonna chop you down
(it'll be alright)
I'm gonna chop you down
(If it takes all night)
I′m gonna chop you down
(cuz baby you′re for me)
I'm gonna chop you down
(Just like a cherry tree)

SOLO-

Now lovin′ Dan may knock you out
But the hatchet man will make you jump and shout
Well I've been swingin′ so long they call me the hatchet man
Well you can find me in the corner with my hatchet in my hand
