Lyrics of Nine Pound Hammer by The Tony Rice Unit
Well the nine pound hammer
Is a little too heavy
It′s for my size
Buddy for my size
Well roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won′t go
It's a long way to harlem
And a long way to hazzard
Just to get a little brew
Just to get a little brew
Well roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won′t go
Well there ain′t one a hammer
That's in this tunnel
That′ll ring like mine
That'll ring like mine
Well roll on buddy
Don′t you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go
I′m going on a mountain
Yea to see my baby
And I ain't coming
No I ain't coming back
Well roll on buddy
Pull a load of coal
How can I pull
When the wheels won′t roll
Well the nine pound hammer
Is a little too heavy
It′s for my size
Buddy for my size
Well roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won′t go
