Van Morrison - Take This Hammer

Take this hammer, take 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
Tell him I'm gone

And if he asks you was I runnin'
If he asks you was I runnin'
If he asks you was I runnin'
Tell him I was flyin'
Won't you tell him I was flyin'?

Oh, this old hammer ringed like silver
This old hammer, well, it ringed like silver
Yeah, this hammer, well, it ringed like silver
And it shined like gold
And it shined like gold

Won't you take this hammer, hammer, hammer?
Take it to the captain
Take this hammer, carry it to the captain
Take this hammer, carry it to the captain
Won't you tell him I'm gone (tell him I'm gone)
Won't you tell him I'm gone

Well, if he asks you was I runnin'
If he asks you was I runnin'
If he asks you was I runnin'
Well, you can tell him I was flyin' (tell him I was flyin')
You can tell him I was flyin'

And if he asks you was I laughin'
If he asks you was I laughin'
If he asks you was I laughin'
You can tell him I was cryin' (tell him I was cryin')
You can tell him I was cryin'

Take this hammer, hammer, hammer?
Take it to the captain
Take this hammer, go on and take it to the captain
Take this hammer, take it to the captain
You can tell him I'm gone (tell him I'm gone)
You can tell him I'm gone (tell him I'm gone)
You can tell him I'm gone (tell him I'm gone)
You can tell him I'm gone (tell him I'm gone)
You can tell him I'm gone, gone, gone (tell him I'm gone)
You can tell him I'm gone (tell him I'm gone)
You can tell him I'm gone, gone (tell him I'm gone)
You can tell him I'm gone
