| lyric | 1. Take this hammer, (huh!)
carry it to the captain, (huh!)
tell him I’m gone, (huh!)
2. If he ask you, (huh!)
was I runnin’ (huh!)
tell him Ize flyin’, (huh!)
3. If he ask you, (huh!)
was I laughin’, (huh!)
tell him Ize cryin’, (huh!)
4. I don’t want no (huh!)
cold i’on shackles, (huh!)
around my leg, (huh!)
5. I don’t want no cornbread and molasses,
They hurt my pride, they hurt my pride.
6. I’m go’n’ make these few days I started,
Then I’m goin’ home, then I’m goin’ home.
