Nine Pound Hammer (Merle Travis) lyrics

Lyrics

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
