9. It's hard to drive nails with a .357 Magnum
My aim is not good, and it splinters the wood.

13. so I could get a lusty young smith to work in my forge
A lusty young smith at his vice stood a-filing.
His hammer laid by but his forge still aglow.
When to him a hot young stud came smiling,
And asked if to work in his forge he would go.

Rum, rum, rum. Rum, rum, rum.
In and out. In and out. Ho!
"I will," said the smith, and they went off together,
Along to the young stud's forge they did go.
They stripped to go to it, 'twas hot work and hot weather.
They kindled a fire and he soon made him blow.

His husband, he said, no good work could afford her.
His strength and his tools were worn out long ago.
The smith said "Well mine are in very good order,
And I am now ready my skill for to show."

Red hot grew his iron, as both did desire,
And he was too wise not to strike while 'twas so.
Said he, "What I get I get out of the fire,
So prithee, strike home and redouble the blow."

Six times did his iron, by vigorous heating,
Grow soft in his forge in a minute or so,
But as often was hardened, still beating and beating,
But the more it was softened, it hardened more slow.

When the smith rose to go, quoth the dame full of sorrow:
"Oh, what would I give could my husband do so.
Good lad with your hammer come hither tomorrow,
But pray could you use it once more ere you go!"

21. both lines I was going to use
except I always thought they did not understand Newton's second law. A nail gets pounded in once. A hammer must pound and pound and pound. Even for a hammer, that is alot of pounding.

20. Me too- but the wood is chipping away on mine-everytime I use it
Sucks pretty soon all I will have is the metal handle and I will have to take it back to Lowe's to get the head replaced.
