Lyrics Nine Pound Hammer Is too Heavy - Bill Monroe

This nine pound hammer, just a little too heavy
Baby for my size, Lord for my size

Roll on buddy, don't you roll so slow
Baby how can I roll, when the wheels won't go?

I'm going to the mountain, for to see my baby
Lord I ain't coming back, no I ain't coming back

Roll on buddy, don't you roll so slow
Baby how can I roll, when the wheels won't go?

There ain't one hammer, in this tunnel
That ring like mine, that ring like mine
Rings like silver, and shines like gold
Rings like silver, and shines like gold

Roll on buddy, don't you roll so slow
Baby how can I roll, when the wheels won't go?

This nine pound hammer, just a little too heavy
Baby for my size, Lord for my size

Roll on buddy, don't you roll so slow
Baby how can I roll, when the wheels won't go?
