If I Had a Hammer Songtext
von Odetta

If I had a hammer,
I′d hammer in the morning,
I'd hammer in the evening
All over this land.
Hammer out danger,
I′d hammer out a warning,
I'd hammer out love
Between all of my brothers
All over this land.


If I had a bell,
I'd ring it in the morning,
And I′d ring it in the evening
All over this land.
Ring out danger,
I′d ring out a warning,
I'd ring out love
Between all of my brothers
All over this land.

If I had a song,
I′d sing it in the morning,
I'd sing it in the evening
All over this land.
Sing out danger,
Sing out warning,
I′d sing out love
Between all of my brothers
All over this land.


Well, I got a hammer,
I've got a bell,
And I got a song to sing
All over this land.
It′s the hammer of justice,
The bell of freedom,
And my song about love
Between all of my brothers
All over this land.
