Hammer In My Hand
So much trouble in this time
So many stairs to climb
You built your house upon the sand
I know that it won't stand
Got my hammer in my hand
Takes rocks and gravel, don't it
To build that wall around it
The rock's so high, baby
'Til I can't get over it
Still so many hands to hold
And lies I have not told
I let my conscience by my guide
When there's no one to confide
I feel it start to slide
Takes rocks and gravel, don't it
To build that wall around it
The rock's so high, baby
'Til I can't get over it
And the rock's so hard, mama
I had to hammer all night to break it
It's the thing that I can't have, baby
That makes me want to take it
So much trouble in this time
So many stairs to climb
All my will at my command
Trying to prove that I'm a man
Got my hammer in my hand
Takes rocks and gravel, don't it
To build that wall around it
The rock's so high, baby
'Til I can't get over it
And the rock's so hard, mama
I had to hammer all night to break it
It's the thing that I can't have, baby
That makes me want to take it
It makes me want to take it
If it takes all night
So many stairs to climb
You built your house upon the sand
I know that it won't stand
Got my hammer in my hand
Takes rocks and gravel, don't it
To build that wall around it
The rock's so high, baby
'Til I can't get over it
Still so many hands to hold
And lies I have not told
I let my conscience by my guide
When there's no one to confide
I feel it start to slide
Takes rocks and gravel, don't it
To build that wall around it
The rock's so high, baby
'Til I can't get over it
And the rock's so hard, mama
I had to hammer all night to break it
It's the thing that I can't have, baby
That makes me want to take it
So much trouble in this time
So many stairs to climb
All my will at my command
Trying to prove that I'm a man
Got my hammer in my hand
Takes rocks and gravel, don't it
To build that wall around it
The rock's so high, baby
'Til I can't get over it
And the rock's so hard, mama
I had to hammer all night to break it
It's the thing that I can't have, baby
That makes me want to take it
It makes me want to take it
If it takes all night
