This song is about my Dad, who pounded a hammer through a wall one night to initiate a needed remodeling project.   Lyrics: Harvey sat at the table and looked at his family a growing clan of 4 kids He said, Phid we are close to outgrowing this kitchen what to you think we should do   The house was to small to offer many options his elbows rubbed against the wall They thought how they might expand into the living room it meant knocking out that wall   Chorus Harvey was do it yourself guy and a man of modest means When a problem needed a fix he was there to get it done   He stared at the problem took a deep drag on this cig squinted his eyes with a plan If we knock that out and move the pantry we can have room for us all.   He went to the junk drawer for a rough looking hammer  and gently tapped on the wall With a few close listens he knew where the studs were and how to take it down.   With a smile on his face and a cig in his lips, he smacked the hammer in his fist. And turn to Phid and asked for her approval  she shook her head not so sure.   He looked up and down from floor to ceiling and around the to living room  and with one gentle swing he buried that hammer one end sticking out each side   He turned to Phid with his cig still dangling, smiled and said now it’s got to be done. She smiled and said that’s good by me honey We can use the extra room.
