G
This nine pound hammer
C7
Is a little too heavy
G D
Buddy for my size size size

Buddy for my size
G
So I'm going on the mountain
C7
Just to see my baby
G D
And I ain't coming back
G
No I ain't coming back



Chorus:
G
Roll on buddy
C7
Don't you roll so slow
G D
Well, tell me how can I roll roll roll
G
When the wheels won't go
G
Roll on buddy
C7
Pull you load of coal
G D
Tell me how can I pull
G
When the wheels won't roll


G
It's a long way to Harlan
C7
It's a long way to Hazard
G D
Just to get a little brew brew brew
G
Just to get a little brew


G
And when I die
C7
You can make my tombstone
G D
Out of number nine coal
D
Out of number nine coal


(Repeat Chorus)
