Jaye Hammer - "Lay The Hammer Down"

Have you heard a song you really like and you really can't explain why?  Well this is it for me - I love this song.  Jaye tells his girl that he'll be home in a few minutes and when he gets there, he'll lay the hammer down.  What a man, what a man!

Ooh girl I know just what you want, yeah

Honey you know just what you need

You walking around with your mind on love

The kind you can only get from me

Just hold on baby, soon I’ll be around

In just a little while

I’m gonna lay the hammer down

Chorus

I’m gonna lay the hammer down

I can lay the hammer down

(Got to lay the hammer down)

I’m gonna lay the hammer down

I can lay the hammer down

Ten days without is much too long

For a woman like you with a love so strong

I’m headed to the airport right away, aw girl

So I can be home by the break of day

And when I get there baby I won’t be fooling around

I’ll be in the mood, oh

I’ve got to lay the hammer down

Chorus

Sometime baby I have to be gone

And I know you can’t wait girl for me to get back home

But when you hear oh the doorbell sound

I hope you’re ready baby

Cause I’ll be there to lay the hammer down

Chorus

Ooh baby you know you can count on me yeah

Cause girl I know just what to do

It’s been too long and you need it bad

Old Jaye is gonna lay the hammer down for you

Just hold on baby, soon I’ll be around

Girl I’ll ease your mind

Cause I’ll be there to lay the hammer down

Chorus (2x)

Just hold on baby soon I’ll be around

And when I get there

Old Jaye is gonna lay the hammer down

Chorus

Just hold on baby…

Just hold on baby, soon I'll be around!
