Bill Monroe - Nine Pound Hammer lyrics

This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy For my size, honey, for my size Roll on buddy, don't you roll so slow Baby, how can I roll when the wheels won't go Up on the mountain just to see my honey And I ain't coming back, lord, I ain't coming back This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy For my size, honey, for my size It's a long way to Hazard a long way to Harian Just to get a little booze, just get a little booz This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy For my size, honey, for my size Ain't one hammer in this tonnel That rings like mine that rings like mine This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy For my size, honey, for my size It rings like silver and shines like gold It rings like silver and shines like gold This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy For my size, honey, for my size Somebody stole my nine pound hammer They've took it and gone, they've took it and gone This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy For my size, honey, for my size That nine pound hammer that k**ed John Henry Ain't a gonna k** me, ain't a gonna k** me This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy For my size, honey, for my size
