If I had a hammer,
I’d hammer for Mumi – ee -ah
I’d hammer for a new trial,
That follows the rules.
A proud black journalist,
Framed in a sham trial.
Let’s all tell, the state of Pennsylvania,
They must re-try, this innocent ma-a-an. (hoo-oo-oo)
If I had a bell,
I’d ring it for Mumi-ee-ah
I’d ring it for a new trial,
That follows the rules.
Blacks in the jury pool,
No racist ju-u-dges
Let’s all tell, the state of Pennsylvania
They must release, this innocent ma-a-an. (hoo-oo-oo)
If I had a song,
I’d sing it for Mumi –ee-ah
I’d sing it for a new trial,
That follows the rules.
Hear all the evidence,
He’s got a good lawyer now.
Let’s all tell, the state of Pennsylvania
They must set free, an innocent ma-a-an. (hoo-oo-oo)
Well, I’ve got a hammer, a bell & a song to sing
About Mumia, and justice denied.
Is this a police state?
Where is the Billll, of Rights?
We must petition, the state of Pennsylvania
Demand justice, for this innocent ma-a-an! (hoo-oo–oo)
(oo-oo-oo), This innocent man!
