If somebody would've told me
One woman could hold me
And leave me weak as a baby
I'd have told 'em they were crazy

Love hit me like a
ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer
with a five foot swing

I used to play it so cool
Lord knows that I was no fool
No chains would ever bind me
But those days are all behind me-
you see

Love hit me like a
ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer
with a five foot swing

I never saw love's power
Just the hearts and the flowers
When I fell it was frightening
It struck me down like lightning-
when

Love hit me like a
ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer
with a five foot swing

I used to live like a rolling stone
Nobody had a hold on me
All it took was a kiss from you
To bring me right to my knees

Love hit me like a
ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer
with a five foot swing

Yeah, that's all she wrote
