Hammer

Well, the world gon' turn, and the sun gon' rise
The river gonna flow, oh, but the creek gone dry
It's hell gettin' old, when it's hot in the shade
I hate to go to work, oh, but I gots to get paid

And when the day's done, I'ma bring it home
Pour up some wine and put an old-time record on
Workin' on love 'til the break of dawn
Daddy swings a hammer to the rhythm of an old song
(Yeah, oh, yeah)

Well, my boat don't run, and the fish don't bite
But I'll be comin' home, girl, to you Sunday night
Baby's in the kitchen, oh, in a black bandana
She said, "Some things need fixin'," so it's time to swing the hammer

There's a full moon in the woods tonight
And I'll be at home just puttin' in overtime
Workin' on love 'til the break of dawn
Daddy swings a hammer to the rhythm of an old song (oh, yeah)
Yeah, the rhythm of an old song (ooh, yeah), hey!

My little mama knows
I'm a hardworkin' man (hardworkin' man)
She lets me swing the hammer
Any time that I can (yeah)
She got me workin' 'round the clock
On them sweet honey-do's (sweet honey-do's)
Just nailin' down a beat
To the rhythm and blues (rhythm and blues)

And when it's all over, I'ma start again
Feelin' your rhythm as an old-time vinyl spins
Workin' on love 'til the break of dawn
Daddy swings the hammer to the rhythm of an old song
Yeah, the rhythm of an old song

Hey!

Rhythm of an old song, rhythm of an old song, yeah, yeah, yeah
Rhythm of an old song, rhythm of an old song, yeah, oh, yeah
Rhythm of an old song, rhythm of an old song, yeah, yeah, yeah
Rhythm of an old song, rhythm of an old song, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Rhythm of an old song, rhythm of an old song, yeah
That's all I can do, whoo!
Rhythm of an old song (that's all I got)
Rhythm of an old song, yeah (yeah, yeah)

Rhythm of an old song, rhythm of an old song
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Rhythm of an old song, rhythm of an old song, yeah
Rhythm of an old song, rhythm of an old song, yeah
