Here's an oldie. I am getting a list of songs for re-recording (preparing for this February RPM Challenge) and this is one song I want to improve. Vocals are a little off here and there and the lyrics need another going over.

When That Hammer Comes Down (3:29)
(c)Emmrich/Patterson 2007

JD Patterson: Backing track
Kevin: Lyrics, vocals, electric guitar

(verse 1) Sometimes love ends like a dying fire
Will that last ember ever expire?
Other times there's a great commotion
and it ends with a big explosion

(chorus) When that hammer comes down
I don't want to be around
It's a messy situation
From which there'll be no salvation

('B' Verse?) Oh, I've heard it all before
With me you'll sweep this floor
Well just don't think that you're the first
To kick me on out the door.

(verse 2)So I am on the road again
Think I might end up where I began
Hey, there's a honky tonk up ahead
I need love, but a beer will do instead

(chorus)When that hammer comes down
I don't want to be around
It's a messy situation
From which there'll be no salvation
