Roll On Buddy
(Charles Bowman)


This nine pound hammer (this nine pound hammer)
Is a little too heavy (is a little too heavy)
For my size (for my size)
Buddy, for my size

So roll on buddy (roll on buddy)
Don't you roll so slow (don't you roll so slow)
Well, how can I roll (well, how can I roll)
When the wheels won't go

I'm goin' on the mountain (I'm goin' on the mountain)
Goin' to see my baby (goin' to see my baby)
And I ain't coming back (and I ain't coming back)
No, I ain't coming back

So roll on buddy (roll on buddy)
Don't you roll so slow (don't you roll so slow)
Well, how can I roll (well, how can I roll)
When the wheels won't go

There ain't but one hammer (there ain't but one hammer)
On this mountain (on this mountain)
That'll ring like mine (that'll ring like mine)
That'll ring like mine

It'll ring like silver (ring like silver)
Shine like gold (shine like gold)
It'll ring like silver (ring like silver)
Shine like gold

Well, roll on buddy (roll on buddy)
Don't you roll so slow (don't you roll so slow)
Well, how can I roll (well, how can I roll)
When the wheels won't go
