If I Had a Hammer
If I had a hammer
I would hammer in the morning
I'd hammer in the evening
all over this land!
I'd hammer out the danger
hammer out a warning
I'd hammer 'bout the love
between
my brothers and my sisters
all, all over this land . . .
all over this land
If I had a bell
I would ring it in the morning
I'd ring it in the evening
all over this land!
I'd ring out the danger
ring out a warning
I'd ring 'bout the love between
my brothers and my sisters
all, all over this land . . .
all over this land
< instrumental break >
If I had a song
I would sing it in the morning
I'd sing it in the evening
all over this land!
I'd sing out the danger
sing out a warning
I'd sing about my brothers and my sisters
all, all over this land . . .
all over this land
Well, I got a hammer, and I got my
bell
and I got a song to sing all over this
land!
It's the hammer of justice!
It's the bell of freedom!
It's a song to sing
about my brothers and my sisters
all, all over this land!
. . . all
over this land, all over this land,
. . . all
over this land!
