The Hammer by David Rudder Composer: David Rudder Genre: Calypso/Soca Producer: Frederick Vicente Hit Trax: www.MIDI.COM.AU
=============================== Somewhere up in Lavantille, many years ago A man had a hammer, used to follow him to and fro He used to use it to pound a pan Or sometimes a stupid man All in the savannah, never miss Panorama One day the old hammer just disappear Some say that it vanished into thin air Chorus Where the man with the hammer gone (Tell me, tell me where he gone) Anybody know where the hammer gone (Tell me, tell where he gone) Can you tell we what going on (Tell me, tell where he gone) I want to know where the hammer gone (Tell me, tell where he gone) Why you up and leave (trail) Why you make me grieve (trail) Hammer, tell me flat (trail) Why you do me that (trail) Oh Lord, well, the dragon don’t walk the trail no more Well, the dragon don’t walk the trail no more From April of ’85, hammer went to sleep After years of making noise, not even a peep He used to move with the dragon man All through this Soca land, always on the scene They used to control the barber-greene Well, the dragon don’t walk the trail no more Who holding the hammer I want to know Chorus Where de man with the hammer gone (Tell me, tell where he gone) Thunderbolt Williams, what going on (Tell me, tell where he gone) This thing like a police boot on my corn (Tell me, tell where he gone) And now I hear it by Y'De Lima on pawn (Tell me, tell where he gone) Children, search under your bed (trail) All above your head (trail) Look behind the door (trail) What you waiting for (trail) Oh Lord, well, the dragon don’t walk the trail no more Well, the dragon don’t walk the trail no more On a silver chariot, riding to the sun Leaving fire in its wake, spirits on the run As we gather round that day, I hear sister Sheila say How last night she see a sign She see the hammer and it doing fine Same time thunder roll, she bawl out, "You see!" He done start to tune a pan already Chorus Where the man with the hammer gone (Tell me, tell where he gone) Sister Sheila, darling, what going on (Tell me, tell where he gone) This hammer giving me a heavy horn (Tell me, tell where he gone) This thing like a police boot on my corn (Tell me, tell where he gone) Search all through the town (trail) Turn it upside down (trail) Check on top the hill (trail) On the window sill (trail) Oh Lord, well, the dragon don’t walk the trail no more Tell them, tell them Well, the dragon don’t walk the trail no more Tell them again Well, the dragon don’t walk the trail no more https://lyricstranslate.com/en/david-rudder-hammer-lyrics.html
