THE HEX BOMBS LYRICS

"The Hammer"

I was walking down the street and I hadn't gotten far,
When I felt a little thirsty so I walked in to the bar...
I saw my cousin, Jimmy, he was sitting by a man...
So I walked right up to him and I offered him my hand.
He said, "Son let me tell you the story of a man,
Called The Hammer, and all his glory...a golden gloves boxer,
Whom never was defeated. A man, a myth, the story of a legend...

With a left and a right, it's such an ugly sight...
To see the repercussion when The Hammer's gonna fight.
With a left and a right, it's such an ugly sight...
To see the repercussion when The Hammer's gonna fight, tonight!

He said, "Son, what's your age?" So I said, "I'm 24."
He proceeded then to tell me,
"Back in 1944, it was a fight in the war, a battle in the ring...
The pride of the navy, and the toughest ever seen."
He said, "The Hammer was a warrior that always stood his ground.
Not a man could last more than five rounds.
He could take a hit and stay in charge,
Delivering his blows and always hitting hard."

The fight of his life is the one in his heart, the only fight that he's ever known!
The pride of the fight is the pride of his life.
The only pride that he's ever known.

Well he stepped in to the ring with a fire in his heart,
Then proceeded to the corner to await the battle start.
With the ringing of the bell, he approached his worthy foe.
Student and the teacher trading punches blow for blow.
With the sound of the bell, the warriors collided.
It only took five rounds to get the bout decided.
When the dust had cleared, the winner stood there. Tall and proud.
But his life was slowly fading...

The fight of his life is the one in his heart, the only fight that he's ever known!
The pride of the fight is the pride of his life.
The only pride that he's ever known.

The Hammer fought his final fight, returned to home that night...he kissed his wife and kids.
The Hammer, he went to bed so tired, only to fall asleep and never wake again...

With a left and a right, it's such an ugly sight...
To see the repercussion when The Hammer's gonna fight.
With a left and a right, it's such an ugly sight...
To see the repercussion when The Hammer's gonna fight, tonight!

The fight of his life is the one in his heart, the only fight that he's ever known!
The pride of the fight is the pride of his life.
The only pride that he's ever known.
