If I Had a Hammer

Johnny Cash


If i had a hammer
I would hammer in the morning
I'd hammer in the evening
All over this land!

I'd hammer out the danger
Hammer out a warning
I'd hammer 'bout the love between
My brothers and my sisters
All, all over this land . . .
All over this land

If i had a bell
I would ring it in the morning
I'd ring it in the evening
All over this land!

I'd ring out the danger
Ring out a warning
I'd ring 'bout the love between
My brothers and my sisters
All, all over this land . . .
All over this land

If i had a song
I would sing it in the morning
I'd sing it in the evening
All over this land!

I'd sing out the danger
Sing out a warning
I'd sing about my brothers and my sisters
All, all over this land . . .
All over this land

Well, i got a hammer, and i got my bell
And i got a song to sing all over this land!
It's the hammer of justice!
It's the bell of freedom!
It's a song to sing
About my brothers and my sisters
All, all over this land!
