GUEST,Joseph de Culver City Number Nine In Songs & Rhymes (82* d) Lyr Add: NINE POUND HAMMER (Merle Travis) 23 Jul 08


This one has a couple:
                                                                   Nine pound hammer (merle travis)


This Nine Pound Hammer,
Is a little too heavy,
For my side, baby for my side.

I'm a-goin' to the mountain,
Gonna see my baby.
But i ain't comin' back,
No. I ain't comin' back.

Roll on, buddy,
Don't ya roll so slow.
How, can I roll,
When my wheels won't go.

Well. it's a long way to Harlan,
It's a long way to Hazard,
Just to get a little brew,
Just to get a little brew.

When I'm long gone,
Don't you make my tombstone,
Outta number nine coal,
Outta number nine coal.


some others:

'96 Tears'-? and the Mysterians
'The One After 909'-The Beatles
'99 and a Half Just Won't Do'
