Nine Pound Hammer

This nine pound hammer, it's a little too heavy

For my size, honey, for my size

I'm goin on the mountain, gonna see my baby

But I ain't comin' back, no, I ain't comin' back

Chorus

Roll on buddy, don't you roll too slow

How can I roll, when the wheels won't go

Roll on buddy, pull a load of coal

How can I pull , when the wheels won't roll

Well, it's a long way to harlan, it's a long way to hazard

Just to get a little brew, just to get a little brew

Well, when I'm long gone you can make my tombstone

Outta number nine coal, outta number nine coal

(chorus)
