He'll make more money when this song becomes a big hit than he would teaching school.

Tennessee middle school assistant football coach, age 26, fired for a song he wrote and played!

When you go to the link for the song, there are a couple of sites that give the news on the firing. This could be the next number one hit country song.

It's the best effort yet at encapsulating the outrage at the oversteps of this government in an entertaining song.

Apparently the guy was fired over the song because some parents complained. If you like it, help it go "viral" by passing it along to everyone you know.

When You're Holding a Hammer (Everything Looks Like a Nail)

Ouch!! now if that song wasn't anti Obama's administation then I don't know what is. The reason I think he got fired was because he used the school's computer to send out the e-mails.

Awesome song!!! Got a good honkytonk sound to it..... Even if it aint Bocephus....

A talented man with his head on straight. I would like to know where he lands on his feet.

Freakin' blocked here at work and my laptop PUKED at home...grrr.

Slim'll have to sing it fer me...hmmm....or maybe not (nails on chalkboard kinda thing, lotsa Lone Stars, somone left the mic on when band took a break, dont ask).

Weeeeeeeeeeeehowdy!

mee, mee, mee, mee .....

"He was a little man, just turned three
Took the present from his daddy’s hand
A genuine toy hammer
He started beatin’ to beat the band
He hit the floors and the wall, broke a lamp in the hall,
Started swinging at the puppy’s tail
When you’re holding a hammer
Everything looks like a nail

He was the president, number 44
He says “Trust me, I’m here to help you
I have got some big big plans
You’re gonna love what I’m gonna do”
There’s no problem too big or small
He thinks he’s got an answer that just can’t fail
When you’re holding a hammer
Everything looks like a nail

He thinks big thoughts and he dreams big dreams
But it’s another man’s sweat that pays for those schemes
He don’t care how the little people feel
‘Cause savin’ the world is a big freakin’ deal
So he does his business behind closed doors
And pretends that the world is just beggin’ for more
When the stuff hits the fan he says “Don’t look at me
If you got trouble, blame 43”

Now Congress is saving Wall Street
While they’re watching Main Street fall
They got health care all figured out
But it don’t seem to care much at all
As soon as they save this planet
They’ll put the fire out in hell
When you’re holding a hammer
Everything looks like a nail

They think big thoughts and they dream big dreams
But it’s another man’s sweat that pays for those schemes
They don’t care how the little people feel
‘Cause savin’ the world is a big freakin’ deal
They do their business behind closed doors
And pretend that the world is just beggin’ for more
When the stuff hits the fan they say “Don’t look at me
If you got trouble, blame 43”

There’ll be a party come this November
Where we’re gonna set things straight
All good people gonna gather ‘round
Gonna show what made this country great
We’ll run off the schemers and back-room dealers

So the Red, White and Blue will prevail
When we’re holding the hammer
When we’re holding the hammer
When we’re holding the hammer
Every one of them looks like a nail"

He swings a big hammer, great song

Well sung Slim...you done good mate.

Cheers, Vince
