Take my hammer, well, now you bring it to the captain
You take my hammer, hey you bring it to the captain
You take my hammer, well boy you bring it to the captain
You tell him I'm gone, boy, you tell the captain I'm gone
I don't want your, your prison hotel
No, I don't need your, your prison hotel
No, I don't want your, (hey now?) your prison hotel
It hurts my pride, boy I said it hurts my pride
Now if the captain ask you, Well was I running
Now if he ask you, hey was I running
Now if he ask you, well, now was I running
You tell him I was flyin' boy, you tell that captain I was flyin'
Now if he ask you, well, was I laughing
Now if he ask you, well, was I laughing
Now if he ask you (Oh yeah!) well, was I laughing
You tell him I was crying, boy, you go and tell him I was crying
You take my hammer, and you bring it to the captain
You take my hammer, and you GO! and give it to the captain
You take my hammer, well, boy you bring it to the captain
You tell him! I'm gone, boy! You tell the captain, I'm gone!
