This Old Hammer
This old hammer
Shine like silver
Shine like gold, boys
Shine like gold
But this old hammer
Shine like silver
Shine like gold, boys
Shine like gold
You hear that hammer ringin'
Ringin'
Drivin' in steel, boys
Drivin' in settl
Hear that hammer
Hammer ringin'
Drivin' in steel
Drivin' in steel
Can't find a hammer
On this mountain
Rings like mine, boys
Rings like mine
I've been workin'
On this ol' mountain
Seven long years, boys
Seven long years
Well, I'm goin' back
To Swanee town, oh
That's my home, boys
That's my home
Goin' back to
Swanee town, oh
That's my home, boys
That's my home
Take this hammer
Give it to the captain
Tell him I'm gone, boys
Tell him I'm gone
