Take this camel, carry it to the captain
Take this camel, carry it to the captain
Take this hammer, carry it to the captain
you can tell him I'm gone
If he asks you, boys are runnin'
If he asks you, boys are runnin'
If he asks you, boys are runnin'
you can tell him I was flyin'
If he asks you, boys are laughing
If he asks you, boys are laughing
If he asks you, boys are laughing
you can tell him I was crying
I don't want no homebred and glasses
I don't want no homebred and glasses
I don't want no old braid and laces
It hurts my pride, it hurts my pride
Well, this hammer looks like silver
Well, this hammer looks like silver
Well, this hammock looks like silver
It feels like gold, it feels like gold
Take this camel and carry it to the captain
Take this camel and carry it to the captain
Take this hammer, carry it to the captain
you can tell him I'm gone
