Nine Pound Hammer
This nine pound hammer,
Is a little too heavy,
For my side, baby for my side.
I'm a-goin' to the mountain,
Gonna see my baby.
But I ain't comin' back,
No. I ain't comin' back.
Roll on, buddy,
Don't ya roll so slow.
How, can I roll,
When my wheels won't go.
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.
When I'm long gone,
Don't you make my tombstone,
Outta number nine coal,
Outta number nine coal.
