This nine pound [G]hammer            There ain't no hammer
Is a little too [C]heavy             On this mountain
For my [G]size                       Rings like mine
[D7]Buddy for my [G]size             That rings like mine

            Chor. Roll on Buddy
                  Don't you pull so slow
                  How can I pull
                  When the wheels don't go
                  (bis)

Rings like silver                    Somebody stole
And shines like gold                 My nine pound hammer       
Rings like silver                    And they took it and gone  
And shines like gold                 Lord they took it and gone

I'm goin' on the mountain            It's a long way to Harlan
Just to see my baby                  It's a long way to Hazard 
And I ain't comin' back              Just to get a little brew 
No I ain't comin' back               Just to get a little brew
