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

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

If I had a song I'd sing it in the morning

I'd sing it in the evening all over this world

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

If 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 the song about love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land

It's the hammer of justice, it's the bell of freedom

It's the song about love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land

All over this land

All over this land
