Jack Hammer Blues

(альбом: Immortal - 1973)

I've got those jackhammer blues, I've been tripping on a hard rock pile
I've got the jackhammer blues, I've been tripping on a block o'slag
I can hear my hammer tripping while I'm trying to get some sleep at night

Jackhammer, jackhammer eating that rock away
Look at my jackhammer chomping that rock away
Takes fourteen cranes and dumptrucks just to follow me around a day

I'm a jackhammer man, I love to hear that hard bit ring
Brrroom, brrroom, brrroom, brrroom, I love to hear that hard bingobling
I've been down this old road and I'll build it back new again

Jackhammer jars my shoulders, jackhammer jars my head
Jackhammer jars my shoulders, jackhammer shivers my head
I shake and shimmy all night long when I put my little self to bed

My jackhammer clatters, it bucks, it jumps, it jars
My jackhammer clatters, it bucks, it jumps, it jars
My wife kicked me out o'bed, I got to sleep out here under the stars

I kept on drilling my bit, folks, kept a-hammering right on down your street
I kept on drilling my bit, folks, kept a-hammering right on down your street
Found a hard steel woman whose shaking just can't be beat

I've got a bit of money saved up working on a jackhammer line
I've got a bit of money saved up working on a jackhammer line
I slide all my money down to the mailbox, shoot it to that women o' mine
