The Hammer & The Nail

I went on down, down to the river
Went on down to see what I could find
Didn't see much, whole lotta nothin'
Except for a school that be takin' on a ride

Oh Lord, oh, I should've known, babe
Oh Lord, ohh, now I shoulda known, shoulda known
Mama, now I shoulda known
Thinkin' that you're hard as nails
Hopin' that that hammer don't fall

You're thinkin' that you're hard as nails
Hopin' that that hammer don't fall, baby
Talkin' 'bout the hammer, whoo
Hammer and the nail

That's right, oh yeah, tell ya a story

I went on back, back to the river
I went on back, think it wasn't long
And as I stood, stared into the water
I just realized that I bought a dancin' song

Oh Lord, oh, I should've known, babe
Oh Lord, ohh, now I shoulda known, shoulda known
Mama, now I shoulda known
Thinkin' that you're hard as nails
Hopin' that that hammer don't fall

Thinkin' that you're hard as nails
Hopin' that that hammer don't fall, baby
Talkin' 'bout the hammer, whoo
Hammer and the nail, man

Oh, yeah, thinkin' that you're hard as nails
Hopin' that that hammer don't fall, baby
You're thinkin' that you're hard as nails
Hopin' that, that hammer don't fall
Talkin' 'bout the hammer, whoo
Hammer and the nail, whoo
