Nine Pound Hammer versuri

Versuri Tennessee Ernie Ford – Nine Pound Hammer lyrics

Roll on, buddy, don’t you roll so slow
How can I roll when the wheels won’t go?

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

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?

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

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?

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
