Текст (слова) песни: Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds - The Hammer Song
I set out on monday The night was cold and vast And my brother slept
And though I left quite quietly My father raged and raged And my mother wept
Now, my life was like a river All sucked into the ground And then the hammer came down Lord, the hammer came down
Many miles did I roam Through the ice and through the snow My horse died on the seventh day
I stumbled into a city Where the people tried to kill me And I ran in shame
Then I came upon a river And I laid my saddle down And then the hammer came down Lord, the hammer came down It knocked me to the ground And I said, "Please, please Take me back to my home town" Lord, the hammer came down
Now I`ve been made weak by visions Many visions did I see All through the night
On the seventh hour an angel came With many snakes in all his hands And I fled in fright
I pushed off into the river And the water came around And then the hammer came down Lord, the hammer came down And it did not make a sound And I said, "Please, please Take me back to my home ground" Lord, the hammer came down
