Hammer and Nails Songtext
von Gov’t Mule

From the LP "Let The Rough Side Drag"

It Takes More Than A Hammer And Nails

It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more than a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home

It takes a firm foundation built on faith and love
With a whole lot of guidance from up above
Show your neighbor what a friend is for
With an open heart and an open door
When your first one reaches for its′ mothers' breasts
He Knows up from down and he knows east from west


It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more than a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home

It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more than a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home

It takes a firm foundation build on truth and thrust
So your wood won′t rot and your nails won't rust
So when your for first one reaches for its' mothers′ breasts
He knows up from down, and he knows east from west
Show your neighbor what a friend is for
With an open heart and an open door


It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more than a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home

It takes more, more than a hammer
More than a hammer and nails
It takes more than a hammer and nails
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
To make a house a home
