Lyrics
They keep on holding me
And they just won't let go
They keep on holding me
And they just won't let go
Lent me your hammer, your hammer, your hammer, your hammer make me hammer them down
Lent me your rammer, rammer, rammer, your rammer
Make me rammer them down
They keep on squeezing me
And they just won't ...
They keep on squeezing me
They're trying to break my cup
Give me your hammer, your hammer, your hammer,
Your hammer
Make me hammer them down
Give me your rammer, rammer, rammer
Make me rammer them down
They keep on fighting me for what I don't know
They keep on fighting me but they got to go
Pass me hammer, me hammer, me hammer
Make me hammer them down
Pass me rammer, me rammer, me rammer
Make me rammer them down
Victimizing me with colonialism
P... lazing. me with imperialism
Lent me your hammer, your hammer, your hammer, your hammer
Make me hammer them down
Lent me your rammer, your rammer, your rammer
Make me rammer them down
They keep on holding me and they just won't let go
They keep on holding me and they just won't let go
Give me the hammer, the hammer, the hammer
Make me hammer them down
Pass the rammer, the rammer, rammer
Make me rammer them down
They keep on fighting me for what I dont know
They keep on fighting me
And all of dem got to go
Give me the hammer the hammer the hammer
Make hammer them down
Give me the rammer the rammer the rammer
Make hammer them down
They keep on fighting, fighting, fighting ...
They keep on squeezing, squeezing, squeezing
They keep on holding me, holding me, holding me
They keep on fighting me, fighting me, fighting me
They keep on squeezing, squeezing, squeezing
Keep on critizising me, critisizing me, critisizing me
I got to keep on living, living, living!!
They can't stop the sun from shining shining shining
They can't stop the grass from growing growing growing
Can't stop the trees from growing growing growing
They can't stop the sun from shining shining shining
Forever forever forever
Writer(s): Bob Marley
