Brian Jackson, Gil Scott-Heron - Under the Hammer lyrics

Good advice is sure 'nough hard to come by
And bad advice surrounds you constantly
And good advice you just can't
Put no price on
And bad advice ain't easy 'cause it's free
But through it all, somehow we’re different
We think there's nothing to it
So we plunge faithfully through it and
No matter how hard it rains, if
We don’t profit from the chain, we're
Under the hammer totally

(I'm talking 'bout) Under the
Hammer from the day you was born and you’re
Under the hammer and out there on your own
And good advice don't make it if there’s no
One there to take it You're just
Under the hammer totally

I meant to tell you something
About the drinking, yeah, but-a
You don't want to hear a word I say
No, and you don't care
What I've been thinking
Because you control things your own way
And since you've got things under control
There ain't nothing to it
Ain't no reason you should do it and
No matter how hard it rains, if
You don’t profit from the chain, you back
Under the hammer totally

(Talking 'bout you) Under the
Hammer from the day you was born and you're
Under the hammer and out there on your own
And good advice don't make it if there’s no
One there to take it You're just
Under the hammer totally

Marlo, sing! Whoo! Everybody!

Good advice is sure 'nough hard to come by
When bad advice surrounds you constantly
And good advice you just can't
Put no price on
And bad advice ain't easy 'cause it's free
And through it all, somehow we're different
Yeah we think there's nothing to it
So we plunge faithfully through it and
No matter how hard it rains, if
We don't profit from the chain, we're
Under the hammer totally

(Baby, they say that you're)
Under the hammer from
The day you was born and you’re
Under the hammer and out there on your own
And good advice don't make it if there's
No one there to take it you're back
Under the hammer totally
(Certainly, certainly, yeah)
Under the hammer from the day you was born
There ain't no surprising you
Now that you're full-grown, you’re
Under the hammer from the day
You was born said
That there ain't no surprising you
Now that you're full-grown
And good advice don't make it if there's
No one there to take it you're just
Under the hammer totally

Check your location, being under the hammer
Under the hammer under the hammer
Under the hammer
