Take This Hammer Songtext
von Lead Belly

Take this hammer, carry it to the captain
Take this hammer, carry it to the captain
Take this hammer, carry it to the captain
Tell him I′m gone
Tell him I'm gone


If he asks you was I runnin′
If he asks you was I runnin'
If he asks you was I runnin'
Tell him I was flyin′
Tell him I was flyin′

If he asks you was I laughin'
If he asks you was I laughin′
If he asks you was I laughin'
Tell him I was cryin′
Tell him I was cryin'


They wanna feed me cornbread and molasses
They wanna feed me cornbread and molasses
They wanna feed me cornbread and molasses
But I got my pride
Well, I got my pride
