Odetta - Take This Hammer lyrics

Ah you can take this hammer, carry it to the captain Ah you can take this hammer, carry it to the captain Ah you can take this hammer, carry it to the captain Tell him I'm gone, boys Tell him I'm gone. I don't want these your cold iron shackles I don't want these your cold iron shackles I don't want these your cold iron shackles Around my leg, boys Around my leg If he ask you, was I running if he ask you, was I running if he ask you, was I running Tell him I'm flyin', boys Tell him I'm flyin' If he ask you, was I laughing if he ask you, was I laughing if he ask you, was I laughing Tell him I'm cryin', boys Tell him I'm cryin' I don't want your corn bread and mola**es I don't want your corn bread and mola**es I don't want your corn bread and mola**es It's my pride, boys It's my pride Take this hammer, carry it to the captain Take this hammer, carry it to the captain Take this hammer, carry it to the captain Tell him I'm gone, boys Tell him I'm gone
