The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

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.

Well if I had a bell, I would ring it in the morning,

And I would 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.

Now if I had a song, I would sing it in the morning,

I would sing it in the evening, all over this land.

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.

Well 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 a hammer of justice, it's a bell of freedom,

It's a song about love between my brothers and my sisters,

All over this land,

All over this land.
