Charley Crockett - 9 Lb Hammer Lyrics




This nine pound hammer
Just a little too heavy
For my size
For my size

Take this hammer
Show it to the captain
Tell him I'm gone
Tell him I'm gone

If he should ask you
Where I went to
Tell him you don't know
Tell him you don't know

This nine pound hammer
Killed John Henry
It laid him low
It laid him low

This nine pound hammer
Killed my brother
But it won't kill me
No it won't kill me

Roll on buddy
Don't you roll too slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go

Roll on brother
But take your time
For I'm broke down
And I can't make mine

This nine pound hammer
Just a little too heavy
For my size
For my size
