Lyrics and translation Alex Harvey - Hammer Song

Hammer Song

"Oh please, don't sell me out", said the man with the hammer, hammering the anvil
"I've been walking on the road of rocks
And I keep on hammering, Keep on hammering, keep on hammering
Hammering the anvil."
"Don't let the sun go down," said the man with the fire, firing the furnace
"I've been buried in the snow
And I keep on firing, keep on firing,
Firing the furnace."

"Don't talk to me", said the man with the chisel, chiseling the surface
"I've been sleeping far too long,
And I keep on chiseling, keep on chiseling, keep on chiseling
Chiseling the surface."

"I don't know what you mean", said the man with the shovel, shoveling the ashes,
"I've been diggin in the frozen ground,
And I keep on shoveling, keep on shoveling, keep on shoveling,
Shoveling the ashes

Chiseling the surface,
Firing the furnace,
Hammering the anvil
Hammering the anvil.

"Oh please, don't sell me out", said the man with the hammer, hammering the anvil
"I've been walking on the road of rocks,
And I keep on hammering, keep on hammering, keep on hammering,
Hammering the anvil."

Shoveling the ashes
Chiseling the surface
Firing the furnace
Hammering the anvil.

Keep it on, keep it on, keep it on!
Hammering the anvil.

Chanson du Marteau

"Oh s'il te plaît, ne me trahis pas", a dit l'homme au marteau, martelant l'enclume
"J'ai marché sur la route des pierres
Et je continue à marteler, continue à marteler, continue à marteler
Martelant l'enclume."
"Ne laisse pas le soleil se coucher", a dit l'homme au feu, allumant le fourneau
"J'ai été enterré dans la neige
Et je continue à allumer, continue à allumer,
Allumant le fourneau."

"Ne me parle pas", a dit l'homme au ciseau, ciselant la surface
"J'ai dormi trop longtemps,
Et je continue à ciseler, continue à ciseler, continue à ciseler
Ciselant la surface."

"Je ne sais pas ce que tu veux dire", a dit l'homme à la pelle, pellettant les cendres,
"J'ai creusé dans le sol gelé,
Et je continue à pelleter, continue à pelleter, continue à pelleter,
Pelletant les cendres

Ciselant la surface,
Allumant le fourneau,
Martelant l'enclume
Martelant l'enclume.

"Oh s'il te plaît, ne me trahis pas", a dit l'homme au marteau, martelant l'enclume
"J'ai marché sur la route des pierres,
Et je continue à marteler, continue à marteler, continue à marteler,
Martelant l'enclume."

Pelletant les cendres
Ciselant la surface
Allumant le fourneau
Martelant l'enclume.

Continue, continue, continue !
Martelant l'enclume.
