Nine Pound Hammer Lyrics

Roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go?

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

Roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go?

Roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go?

And I'm goin' on a mountain
Goin' to see my baby
And I ain't coming back
No, I ain't coming back

Roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go?

Roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go?

Roll on buddy
Don't you roll so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go?

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

Goin' on a mountain
Goin' to see my baby
And I ain't coming back
And I ain't coming back

Roll on buddy
Oh, so slow
How can I roll
When the wheels won't go?

Bill Monroe (September 13, 1911 – September 9, 1996) developed the style of country music known as bluegrass, which takes its name from his band, the "Blue Grass Boys," named for his home state of Kentucky. Monroe's performing career spanned 60 years as a singer, instrumentalist, composer and bandleader. He is often referred to as "the father of bluegrass."

In the rock (and roll) community, Bill Monroe may be best known via one of Elvis Presley's earliest recordings at Sun Records, that of Monroe's 'Blue Moon of Kentucky'. Patsy Cline also made a highly regarded version of this song.
