Lyrics
It s a long way to harlan, how can i roll, just to see my baby
And i ain t coming back, pull a load of coal
when the wheels don t roll
Shines like gold, it killed john henry, it killed john henry
This old hammer, when the wheels don t roll
Don t you roll so slow, how can i roll, this old hammer
roll on buddy
Rings like silver, how can i roll
This nine pound hammer, pull a load of coal, when the wheels won t go
That can ring like mine, how can i roll, there ain t one hammer
when the wheels won t go
When the wheels don t roll, i m going on the mountain
when the wheels don t roll
how can i roll
This old hammer, how can i roll
It killed john henry, roll on buddy Waylon, roll on buddy
When the wheels won t go, when the wheels won t roll
I m going on the mountain, how can i roll
Is a little too heavy, when the wheels won t go Pound, that can ring like mine
Just to get a little brew, i m going on the mountain
how can i roll
how can i pull
When the wheels don t roll, pull a load of coal, is a little too heavy
How can i pull, it killed john henry
pull a load of coal
Roll on buddy, this old hammer
shines like gold
when the wheels won t go
just to get a little brew
Roll on buddy, ain t gonna kill me, how can i roll
It s a long way to harlan, rings like silver
Don t you roll so slow, i ain t coming back
That can ring like mine, down in this tunnel, when the wheels won t go
pull a load of coal
Ain t gonna kill me, rings like silver Pound, when the wheels don t roll
when the wheels won t go
That can ring like mine, don t you roll so slow, is a little too heavy
when the wheels won t go
roll on buddy
How can i pull, this old hammer
Pull a load of coal, down in this tunnel, ain t gonna kill me
Just to get a little brew, is a little too heavy, rings like silver
This old hammer, roll on buddy, how can i pull
roll on buddy
How can i roll, there ain t one hammer
This nine pound hammer, just to see my baby
When the wheels won t go, it killed john henry
Roll on buddy, is a little too heavy
when the wheels don t roll
