Nine Pound Hammer

G
Flatt & Scruggs
[Verse 1]
G
This nine pound hammer
                       C              G
Is just a little too heavy... for my size
  D             G
Buddy, for my size
 
[Chorus]
G                                     C
Roll on, Buddy... don't you roll so slow
           G    D                     G
How can I roll when the wheels won't go?
 
[Verse 2]
I went upon the mountain
Just to see my honey
And I ain't coming back
Lord, I ain't coming back
 
[Chorus]

 
[Verse 3]
It's a long way to Hazard
And a long way to Harlan
Just to get a little booze
Just to get a little booze
 
[Chorus]
