Take this hammer, waoh, carry to the captain, waoh
Take this hammer, waoh, carry to the captain, waoh
Take this hammer, waoh, carry to the captain, waoh
Tell him I'm gone, boy, waoh, you can tell him I'm gone, waoh

If he ask you, waoh, was I runnin', waoh
If he ask you, waoh, was I runnin', waoh
If he ask you, waoh, was I runnin', waoh
You can tell him I were flyin', boy, waoh, you can tell him I were flyin', waoh

If he ask you, waoh, was I laughin', waoh
If he ask you, waoh, was I laughin', waoh
If he ask you, waoh, was I laughin', waoh
You can tell him I were cryin', boy, waoh, you can tell him I were cryin', waoh

Well, I don't want none, waoh, cornbread and molasses, waoh
Well, I don't want none, waoh, cornbread and molasses, waoh
Well, I don't want none, waoh, cornbread and molasses, waoh
It hurt me proud, boy, waoh, it hurt my proud, waoh

Well, that old captain, waoh, was a mean old captain, waoh
That old captain, waoh, was a mean old captain, waoh
That old captain, waoh, was a mean old captain, waoh
You can tell him I'm gone, boy, waoh, you can tell him I'm gone, waoh
