Capo 2 Fret
[Verse 1]
Well this nine pound Ahammer. it?s a little too Dheavy,
Yes for my E7size, buddy for my Asize.
[Chorus]
Well roll on Abuddy, Don?t you roll so Dslow,
How can I E7roll, when my wheels won?t Aroll?
[Verse 2]
I went up into the Amountain just to see my Dhoney,
And I ain?t coming E7back, Lord I ain?t coming Aback.
[Chorus]
Well roll on Abuddy, Don?t you roll so Dslow,
How can I E7roll, when my wheels won?t Aroll?
[Verse 3]
It?s a long way to AHarlen, and a long way to DHazard,
Just to get a little E7brew, just to get a little Abrew.
[Chorus]
Well roll on Abuddy, Don?t you roll so Dslow,
How can I E7roll, when my wheels won?t Aroll?
[Verse 4]
Well an eight pound Ahammer that?s in this Dtunnel,
Got a ring like E7mine, got a ring like Amine.
[Chorus]
Well roll on Abuddy, Don?t you roll so Dslow,
How can I E7roll, when my wheels won?t Aroll?
I?m going down the Amountain, now to see my Dbaby,
And I ain?t coming E7back, No, I ain?t coming Aback.
Well roll on Abuddy, Roll a load of Dcoal,
How can I E7pull, when my wheels won?t Aroll?
Well the nine pound Ahammer, it?s a little too Dheavy,
Yes for my E7size, honey for my Asize.
[Chorus]
Well roll on Abuddy, Don?t you roll so Dslow,
How can I E7roll, when my wheels won?t Aroll?
