John Prine - Nine Pound Hammer текст песни

This nine pound hammer

Is a little too heavy

Buddy for my size

Buddy for my size

So Im going on the mountain

Just to see my baby

And I aint coming back

No I aint coming back

Chorus:

Roll on buddy

Dont you roll so slow

Well, tell me how can I roll

When the wheels wont go

Roll on buddy

Pull you load of coal

Tell me how can I pull

When the wheels wont roll

Its a long way to harlan

Its a long way to hazard

Just to get a little brew

Just to get a little brew

And when Im long gone

You can make my tombstone

Out of number nine coal

Out of number nine coal

Repeat chorus:
