lonesome river band - swing that hammer lyrics

Loading...

[chorus}
swing that hammer
break that rock
lord, that ol’ sun is hot
and the shackles that i wear fit too tight

i ain’t seen n0body smile
out on this ol’ rockpile
and they’ll knock you down
if you don’t do it right

[banjo instrumental]

[verse 1}
now hard time goes so slow
and i’ve got ten to go
i’m a number now
and i don’t have a name

but there ain’t no need to whine
this ball and chain is mine
there ain’t no way to stop
this burnin’ pain

[chorus]
swing that hammer
break that rock
lord, that ol’ sun is hot
and the shackles that i wear fit too tight
i ain’t seen n0body smile
out on this ol’ rockpile
and they’ll knock ya down
if you don’t do it right

[mandolin instrumental]

[verse 2]
at night old memories show
cold steel is so cold
it’s a lonesome time
when they turn out the light

these walls are grim and gray
tomorrow’s anothеr day
to swing my hammer down
with all my might

[chorus]
swing that hammer
break that rock
lord, that old sun is hot
and thе shackles that i wear fit too tight

i ain’t seen n0body smile
out on this ol’ rockpile
and they’ll knock ya down
if you don’t do it right
oh, they’ll knock ya down
if you don’t do it right!
