Lyrics

[Verse 1]

If I had a hammer

I hammer in the morning

I hammer in the evening

All over this land

[Verse 2]

I hammer out danger

I hammer out a warning

I hammer 'bout the love between my brothers and my sisters

Ah, all over this land

[Verse 3]

If I had a bell

I ring it in the morning

It in the evening

All over this land

[Verse 4]

I ring out danger

I ring out a warning

I ring about the love between my brothers and my sisters

Ah, all over this land

[Verse 5]

If I had a song

I sing it in the morning

I sing it in the evening

All over this land

[Verse 6]

I sing out danger

I sing out a warning, yeah

I sing about my love between by brothers and my sisters

Ah, all over this land

[Verse 7]

Now I've got a hammer

And I've got a bell

Now I've got a song to sing

All over this land

[Verse 8]

It's the hammer of justice

It's the bell of freedom, yeah

It's the song about the love between my brothers and my sisters

Ah, all over this land

[Verse 9]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

All over this land

All over this land

All over this land

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

All over this land

All over this land
