This nine pound hammer

Don't you roll so slow

Baby, how can I roll
B7 E
When the wheels won't go
I'm going on a mountain
Gonna see my baby
But I ain't coming back
Lord I ain't coming back

It’s a long way to Hazzard
And a long way to Harlen
Just to get a little brew
Just to get a little brew

Now when I’m long gone
You can make my tombstone
Out of number 9 coal
Out of number nine coal
