If I Had a Hammer (If I Had a Dollar)

If I had a dollar
I'd get up in the morning
I'd start the day singin'
A dollar in hand
I'd take me a gamble
And win me a fortune
I'd win me a stake to buy a ticket to the good times
I'd be livin' it grand

If I hit the good times
I'd chase away the people
all a pushin' and a shovin'
Just to shake my hand
I'd tell them remember
I asked you a favour
And never a guy to hand a fella a dollar
Now I'm livin' it grand

I'd grab me a woman
Related to Venus
I'd weigh her in diamonds
Oh, the best in this land
I'd climb up a mountain
And look down at the people
Way down at the friends who called a fella a lowlife
I'd be livin' it grand

I ain't got a dollar
An' I ain't hit the good times
I ain't got a woman
You don't understand
Well I'm climbing a mountain
A mountain of people
I'm asking the world for a just miserable dollar
One dollar blue to give me a hand
One dollar blue to give me a hand
One dollar blue to give me a hand

If I had a dollar
If I'd one just dollar...
