Nine Pound Hammer (1) (with Recitation) Songtext
von Dick Curless

This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy
For my size honey for my size
Well I′m goin' on the mountain just to see my baby
And I ain′t comin' back no well I ain't comin′ back
Well oh roll on buddy don′t you roll so slow
How can I go when my wheels won't roll
[ Ac.guitar ] Well it′s a long way to Harlem it's a long way to Hazzard
Just to get a little brew just to get a little brew
Well now when I′m long gone you can make my tombstone
Out of number nine coal out of number nine coal
Well oh roll on buddy pull a load of coal
How can I pull when my wheels won't roll
