“If I had a hammer”

by Lee Hays / Pete Seeger

If I had a hammer, I’d hammer in the morning, I’d hammer in the evening
All over this land
I’d hammer out danger, I’d hammer out a warning, I’d hammer out love between
My brothers and my sisters
All over this land, uh
 .
If I had a bell, I’d ring it in the morning, I’d ring it in the evening
All over this land
I’d ring out danger, I’d ring out a warning, I’d ring out love between
My brothers and my sisters
All over this land, oh
 .
If I had a song, I’d sing it in the morning, I’d sing it in the evening
All over this land
I’d sing out danger, I’d sing out a warning, I’d sing out love between
My brothers and my sisters
All over this land, oh
.
Well, I’ve got a hammer, And I’ve got a bell, And I’ve 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 about love between
My brothers and my sisters
All over this land
It’s a hammer of justice, It’s a bell of freedom, It’s a song about love between my brothers and my sisters
All over this land.
