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
* Refrain
It's a long way to Hazard a long way to Harian
Just to get a little booze, just get a little booz
* Refrain
Ain't one hammer in this tonnel
That rings like mine that rings like mine
* Refrain
It rings like silver and shines like gold
It rings like silver and shines like gold
* Refrain
Somebody stole my nine pound hammer
They've took it and gone, they've took it and gone
* Refrain
That nine pound hammer that killed John Henry
Ain't a gonna kill me, ain't a gonna kill me
* Refrain
