Hank Thompson Nine Pound Hammer Lyrics

Nine Pound Hammer Lyrics

This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy

For my size oh baby for my size

I'm goin' on the mountain I gotta see my baby

And I ain't comin' back no I ain't comin' back



Say roll on buddy don't you roll so slow

How can I go when the wheels won't roll

Say roll on buddy pull a load o'coal

How can I go when the wheels won't roll

[ guitar ]

Well it's a long way to Harlan and a long way to Hazzard

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

Now when I'm long gone baby make my tombstone

Out of number nine coal out of number nine coal

Say roll on buddy...

[ steel ]

Say roll on buddy...
