Lyrics
This nine pound hammer is a little too heavy
For my size, honey, for my size
Roll on buddy, don't you roll so slow
Baby, how can I roll when the wheels won't go
Up on the mountain just to see my honey
And I ain't coming back, lord, I ain't coming back
[Chorus]
It's a long way to Hazard a long way to Harian
Just to get a little booze, just get a little boos
[Chorus]
Ain't one hammer in this tunnel
That rings like mine that rings like mine
[Chorus]
It rings like silver and shines like gold
It rings like silver and shines like gold
[Chorus]
Somebody stole my nine pound hammer
They've took it and gone, they've took it and gone
[Chorus]
That nine pound hammer that killed John Henry
Ain't a gonna kill me, ain't a gonna kill me
[Chorus]

This is one of the tightest live performances to ever be recorded in bluegrass history. This whole thing is just insane.
