Sledgehammer (Live) [Athens 1987] Lyrics
[Intro]
"One! Two! Three!"
[Verse 1]
You could have a steam train
If you just lay down your tracks
You could have an aeroplane flying
If you bring your blue sky back
All you do is call me
I'll be anything you need
[Verse 2]
You could have a big dipper
Going up and down, all around the bends
You could have a bumper car, bumping
This amusement never ends
[Chorus 1]
I wanna be your sledgehammer
Why don't you call my name?
I wanna be your sledgehammer
This will be my testimony
Yeah! Yeah!
[Verse 3]
Show me 'round your fruit cage
'Cause I will be your honey bee
Open up your fruit cage
Where the fruit is as sweet as can be
"One! Two! Three!"
[Verse 1]
You could have a steam train
If you just lay down your tracks
You could have an aeroplane flying
If you bring your blue sky back
All you do is call me
I'll be anything you need
[Verse 2]
You could have a big dipper
Going up and down, all around the bends
You could have a bumper car, bumping
This amusement never ends
[Chorus 1]
I wanna be your sledgehammer
Why don't you call my name?
I wanna be your sledgehammer
This will be my testimony
Yeah! Yeah!
[Verse 3]
Show me 'round your fruit cage
'Cause I will be your honey bee
Open up your fruit cage
Where the fruit is as sweet as can be
[Chorus 2]
I wanna be your sledgehammer
Why don't you call my name?
I wanna be your sledgehammer
Put your mind at rest
I'm gonna be the sledgehammer
This will be my testimony
Hey, your sledgehammer
Let there be no doubt about it
[Post-Chorus]
Sledge, sledge
Sledgehammer
[Interlude]
[Outro]
I kicked the habit
Kicked the habit, kicked the habit
Shed my skin
Shed my skin
This is the new stuff
This is the new stuff
I go dancing in
We go dancing in
Oh, won't you show for me?
Show for me
I will show for you
Show for you
Won't you show for me?
Show for me
Oh, I will show for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, only you
Won't you show for me?

Won't you show for me?

You been coming through
I'm gonna build that power
Build, build up that power, hey
Come on, come on, help me do
Come on, come on, help me do
Yeah, yeah, yeah, all day and night
"Thank you!"
I wanna be your sledgehammer
Why don't you call my name?
I wanna be your sledgehammer
Put your mind at rest
I'm gonna be the sledgehammer
This will be my testimony
Hey, your sledgehammer
Let there be no doubt about it
[Post-Chorus]
Sledge, sledge
Sledgehammer

I kicked the habit
Kicked the habit, kicked the habit
Shed my skin
