Swing Dat Hammer

Swing Dat Hammer - Harry Belafonte (哈里·贝拉方特)

Written by：Hall Johnson

Swing dat hammer swing dat hammer

Swing it higher 'bove your head

Making little ones out of big ones

Hammer kill you almost dead

If I ever leave this chain gang

I'm coming home once more

Mama mama do not scorn me

Do not turn me from your door

Swing it high boys swing it low boys

Swing dat hammer till you dead

Swing it high boys swing it low boys

Swing dat hammer till you dead

Yes yes but I'm back in dear ol' Georgie

And I got to serve this time

Swing it high boys swing it low boys

Swing dat hammer till you dead

Swing it high boys swing it low boys

Swing dat hammer till you dead

Mama mama mama mama

Ain't you shamed of your dear son

Ain't you sorry that you born me

When you see what I've done done

Swing it high boys swing it low boys

Look a here ma what I've done done

Swing it high boys swing it low boys

Swing dat hammer till you dead
