When the Hammer Came Down lyrics

My eyes are wide open
My head hangin' down
I was runnin' through the woods
Like a rabbit being chased by the hounds

On the side of the road
Lies a jawbone cracked
Some poor dead beast out in the sun
Rottin' in the sun

Oh yeah, alright, well, I was almost home
When the hammer came down
The more I know and the more I see
I would have never known
When the hammer came down

Daddy had a hammer
It could shine like gold
Man, it sounded like thunder
He could really make the thunder roll

Raise 'em up, higher, higher
Bringing it down
But you never knew the difference
Never knew when the sun went down

Oh yeah, alright, well, I was almost home
When the hammer came down
The more I know and the more I see
I would have never known
When the hammer came down

68 Hammers ringing, ringing a line
Takes so long and I'm so so far behind
Wake up , please wake up
And tell me there's time

I made it to the river
But couldn't get across
And rising up in front of me
A crown of glory shattered and lost

Put away my sorrows
And put away my pain
And I'm never ever looking back
'Cause nothing's ever going to be the same

I was almost home
Almost home when the hammer came down
