This Nine Pound Hammer,
Is a little too heavy,
For my side, baby for my side.
I'm a-goin' to the mountain,
Gonna see my baby.
But i ain't comin' back,
No. I ain't comin' back.
Roll on, buddy,
Don't ya roll so slow.
How, can I roll,
When my wheels won't go.
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.
When I'm long gone,
Don't you make my tombstone,
Outta number nine coal,
Outta number nine coal.

This Nine Pound Hammer,
Is a little too heavy,
For my side, baby for my side.
I'm a-goin' to the mountain,
Gonna see my baby.
But i ain't comin' back,
No. I ain't comin' back.
Roll on, buddy,
Don't ya roll so slow.
How, can I roll,
When my wheels won't go.
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.
When I'm long gone,
Don't you make my tombstone,
Outta number nine coal,
Outta number nine coal.

For my side, baby for my side.

Gonna see my baby.

No. I ain't comin' back.
Roll on, buddy,
Don't ya roll so slow.

It's a long way to Hazard,
Just to get a little brew,
Just to get a little brew.
When I'm long gone,
Don't you make my tombstone,
Outta number nine coal,
Outta number nine coal.
