Nine Pound Hammer

Merle Travis

[Intro]
Roll on, buddy, don't you roll so slow
How can I roll when the wheels won't go?

[Verse 1]
This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy
For my size, honey, for my size
I'm going on the mountain, going to see my baby
But ain't a-coming back, well, I ain't a-coming back

[Chorus]
Roll on, buddy, don't you roll so 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?

[Verse 2]
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
And when I'm long gone you can make my tombstone
Out of number nine coal, out of number nine coal

[Chorus]
Roll on, buddy, don't you roll so 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?

[Verse 1]
This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy
For my size, honey, for my size
I'm going on the mountain going to see my baby
But ain't a-coming back, no, I ain't coming back
