Hammer Swings Down Songtext / Lyric

We were riding the neon trail between

Heaven and Hell

And she acted like she loved me

But I knew her too well



But that ain't the end of the story

She thought that she'd just slide away

Don't ever hang a man by the end of his rope

'Cuz he's sure to explode and you know you will pay



When the hammer swings down!

Like the thundering sound



Of a ship hitting ground



When the hammer swings down!

Like a wild cat strikes

I'll be hunting tonight for you

Baby for you!



Well she thought she was something special

Better than me

And she danced with my heart and desires

Shattered my dreams






But that ain't the end of the story

Like a snake she thought she'd slide away

I was played for a fool for her emotional pleasure

Now I'm gonna strike, she's gonna break



When the hammer swings down!

Like the thundering sound

Of a ship hitting ground



When the hammer swings down!

Like a wild cat strikes

I'll be hunting tonight for you

Baby for you!



Whoa!



Swing, swing, swing, swing!



When the hammer swings down!

Like the thundering sound

Of a ship hitting ground



When the hammer swings down!

Like a wild cat strikes

I'll be hunting tonight



When the hammer swings down!

Like the thundering sound

Of a ship hitting ground



When the hammer swings down!

Like a hand through your heart

Gonna rip you apart



When the hammer swings down!
