Big Spike Hammer
Lyrics:
Can’t you hear the whistle of my big spike hammer.
Lord, it’s
busting my side.
I’ve done all I can do to keep that woman happy.
Still she’s not satisfied.
Hey, hey Della Mae.
Why do you treat
me this way?
Hey, hey Della Mae.
I’ll get even some day.
I’m
the best hammer swinger on this big section gang.
Big Bill Johnson
is my name.
Lord this hammer that I swing for a dollar and a half a
day.
It's all for my Della Mae.
Hey, hey Della Mae.
Why do
you treat me this way?
Hey, hey Della Mae.
I’ll get even some day.
Now I’ve been lots of places, not much I ain’t done.
There’s
still alot of things I’d like to see.
Lord, this hammer that I swing
or the woman that I love.
Yes, one’s gonna be the death of me.
Hey, hey Della Mae.
Why do you treat me this way?
Hey, hey Della
Mae.
I’ll get even some day.
Big spike hammer.
Big spike
hammer.
