Yonder Mountain String Band - Big Spike Hammer Lyrics

Can't you hear the ripple of my big spike hammer
Lord, it's busting my side
I've done all I can do to keep that woman
But still she's not satisfied

Chorus:
Hey hey Delamae, why do you treat me this way
Hey hey Delamae, I'll be leaving some day

I'm the best hammer swinger in this big section gang
Big Dave Johnston is my name
The spike hammer that I swing for a dollar-and-a-half a day
It's all for my Delamae

[ Chorus ]

Well, I've been lots of places
And not much I ain't done
There's still a lot of things I'd like to see
But this hammer that I swing, Lord, the woman that I love
Now one's gonna be the death of me

[ Chorus ]
