Townes Van Zandt - Nine Pound Hammer (merle Travis) lyrics

this nine pound hammer, it's a little too heavy For my size, honey, for my size I'm goin on the mountain, gonna see my baby But i ain't comin' back, no, i ain't comin' back Chorus Roll on buddy, don't you roll too 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 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 Well, when i'm long gone you can make my tombstone Outta number nine coal, outta number nine coal (chorus) (inst. break) (chorus)
