 136 &gt; &gt;
 137 &gt; &gt; &quot;Buddy, Won't You Roll Down the Line&quot; by Uncle Dave Macon,
 138 &gt; &gt; recorded in 1930
 139 &gt; &gt;
 140 &gt; &gt; &quot;...buddy, roll down line,
 141 &gt; &gt; yonder comes my darling, coming down line...&quot;
 142 &gt;
 143 &gt;&gt; Also, as has been mentioned here earlier, there is an oft-recorded white
 144 &gt;&gt; Kentucky coal-miner's song &quot;Nine Pound Hammer&quot; (not to be completely
 145 &gt;&gt; confused with, but somewhat similar to, the black railroad worker's song
 146 &gt;&gt; &quot;Take This Hmmer&quot;)
 147 &gt;
 148 &gt;&gt; Roll on, buddy, don't you roll so slow
 149 &gt;&gt; How can i roll, when the wheels won't go?
 150 &gt;
 151 &gt;Sorry Catherine,
 152 &gt;But &quot;Buddy Won't You Roll Down The Line&quot; is a completely different song
 153 than
 154 &gt;&quot;Nine Pound Hammer.&quot;
 155 &gt;--Peter
 156
 157 Maybe I can shed a little light on all these songs which became so
 158 thoroughly mixed up in these previous posts (most of the factual info is
 159 from Archie Green, Only A Miner, while most of the evaluations/conclusions
 160 are mine) :
 161
 162 1) The &quot;black&quot; song, earliest recorded version (sung for noted folksong
 163 collector Robert Winslow Gordon by William H. Stevens at Biltmore &ndash; a
 164 suburb of Asheville, NC, on Nov. 26, 1925) as &quot;Convict Song&quot; (about black
 165 prisoners used as &quot;involuntary scabs&quot; in coal mines against orgainzed
 166 labor &ndash; presumably based on the Coal Creek troubles 1876-'77):
 167
 168 CHORUS: O buddy, won't yer roll down the line,
 169 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Hop down, skip down,
 170 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Well, yonder comes my darlin'
 171 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Rollin' down the line.
 172
 173 IMO, this songs is also lyrically and structurally related to other prison
 174 songs like &quot;Midnight Special.&quot;
 175
 176 Other variants by Watts and Wilson (as &quot;Chain Gang Special&quot;), Paramount
 177 3019, Mar 1927 (black artists, song localized to Belmont, NC, area, about
 178 convicts on a chain gang &quot;shoveling sand&quot;):
 179
 180 CHORUS: Hey, nigger won't you roll down the line,
 181 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Roll down the line.
 182 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Yonder comes my darling, roll down the line,
 183 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Keep a-rolling &ndash; won't you roll down the line,
 184 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Roll on &ndash; won't you roll down the line.
 185 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Yonder comes my darling, roll down the line,
 186
 187 Again, structural and lyrical similarities to the &quot;Midnight Special&quot; song
 188 family.
 189
 190 A rather abridged &quot;white&quot; version (references to forced labor basically left
 191 out &ndash; with the exception of references to a &quot;captain&quot; and the &quot;mouth of the
 192 hole&quot; &ndash; , modeled slightly after &quot;Handsome Molly&quot;/&quot;Shady Grove&quot; song
 193 families) was recorded by the Allen Brothers (Lee and Austin Allen) in Nov
 194 1930 as &quot;Roll Down The Line&quot; (Victor 23551) and again in 1934 as &quot;Hey Buddy,
 195 Won't You Roll Down The Line&quot; (Vocalion 02818).
 196
 197 CHORUS (1931 version): Hey Buddy, won't you roll down the line,
 198 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Roll down the line.
 199 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Hey, yonder comes my darling, roll down the line,
 200 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Oh, roll down the line,
 201 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Roll down the line.
 202 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Hey, yonder comes my darling, roll down the line,
 203
 204 2) A related &quot;black/white&quot; song family &ndash; clearly about the Coal Creek
 205 troubles --
 206 one version &quot;Lone Rock Song&quot; collected by James Dombrowski from &quot;Uncle
 207 Jesse&quot; James in 1937, who stated that he had learned the song as a young
 208 miner from black convicts in Tracy City, Grundy County, TN &ndash; far more
 209 elaborate than the three previous variants (11 stanzas) with clear and
 210 explicit references to convict coal mining.
 211
 212 CHORUS: Buddy won't you roll down the mountain
 213 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buddy won't you roll down the line,
 214 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Yonder come my darlin'
 215 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Comin' down the line.
 216
 217 The most widely circulated version: Uncle Dave Macon's version (with Sam
 218 McGee), &quot;Buddy Won't You Roll Down The Line&quot;, recorded Jul 25, 1928
 219 (Brunswick 292) and reissued on Harry Smith's &quot;Anthology of American Folk
 220 Music&quot;; also recorded by Pete Seeger (&quot;American Industrial Ballads&quot;,
 221 Folkways), The Gateway Singers (&quot;At the Hungry I&quot;, Decca), The Kingston Trio
 222 (&quot;String Along&quot;, Capitol), and Hedy West (&quot;Serves 'Em Fine&quot;, Fontana), to
 223 name but a few.
 224
 225 Again explicit references to the Coal Creek labor struggles and the use of
 226 convict miners &quot;against free labor stout&quot; &ndash; altogether a rather &quot;humorous&quot;
 227 piece (consistent with Uncle Dave Macon's image) than the &quot;Lone Rock Song&quot;.
 228
 229 CHORUS: Oh, Buddy, won't you roll down the line?
 230 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buddy, won't you roll down the line?
 231 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Yonder comes my darling, coming down the line.
 232 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buddy, won't you roll down the line?
 233 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buddy, won't you roll down the line?
 234 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Yonder comes my darling, coming down the line.
 235
 236 Another possibly related variant was collected by John and Alan Lomax, from
 237 unnamed black prisoners, in Memphis, TN, Jul 1933. The song itself is
 238 basically the British broadside &quot;The Sailor Boy&quot; (aka &quot;Deep Blue Sea&quot;, &quot;My
 239 Willie's On the Dark Blue Sea&quot;), with a chorus basically identical to that
 240 of the two previous versions and a rather &quot;incongruous&quot; reference to a
 241 &quot;captain&quot; who lost 90 of his 100 men (convicts?) &quot;when he got to
 242 Nashville&quot; &ndash; basically the only reference tying this song in with the Coal
 243 Creek labor struggles.
 244
 245 Further &quot;white&quot; variants (under the title &quot;Ole Humpy&quot;), clearly related to
 246 or derived from the &quot;Lone Rock Song&quot; variant, were collected by Archie Green
 247 in the 1960s.
 248
 249 3) The &quot;Nine Pound Hammer&quot; song family &ndash; NOT related to the two previous
 250 song families.
 251
 252 First variant in print: Robert Winslow Gordon, Adventure (1924): one of six
 253 fragments heard in southern railroad and other construction camps by Charles
 254 Miller of Waycross, GA:
 255
 256 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; And it's roll on, buddy,
 257 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; What makes you roll so slow?
 258 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Your buddy is almost broke
 259 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Down on the K.N.O.
 260
 261 Earliest commercial recording with the title &quot;Nine Pound Hammer&quot;:
 262 Al Hopkins and His Buckle Busters, May 1927 (Brunswick 177):
 263
 264 CHORUS: Nine pound hammer, just a little too heavy,
 265 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Baby, for my size, baby, for my size.
 266 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Roll on buddy, don't you roll so slow,
 267 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Baby, how can I roll when my wheel won't go?
 268
 269 According to Charles Bowman, an original member of the &quot;Buckle Busters&quot;
 270 (interviewed by Archie Green, 1961), he learned parts of the song from black
 271 railroad construction crews near Johnson City, TN, most likely between 1903
 272 and 1905 when the C C &amp; O reached his community. The song itself is related
 273 to the &quot;John Henry&quot; song family (&quot;Nine pound hammer killed John Henry&quot;), the
 274 tune (according to Green) is related to that of &quot;Swannanoa Town&quot; (as
 275 collected by Cecil Sharp in 1916).
 276
 277 Several other recordings by Grayson &amp; Whitter (Victor 40105, 1928), The
 278 Monroe Brothers (1936), and others.
 279
 280 Merle Travis' famous version (recorded Aug 8, 1946) is derived from the
 281 Buckle Buster's variant via &quot;Texas Ruby&quot; Owens, with whom Merle had worked
 282 before World War II on WLW, Cincinnati, OH.
 283
 284 He further confuses the matter, because he puts this original &quot;railroad&quot;
 285 song into a coal mining setting (possibly because of &ndash; subconscious --
 286 recollections of &quot;another&quot; coal mining song of the #1 or #2 variety?). He
 287 changed the chorus to read:
 288
 289 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Roll on buddy, don't you roll so slow,
 290 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; How can I roll when the wheels don't go?
 291 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Roll on buddy, pull a load of coal,
 292 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; How can I pull when the wheels won't go?
 293
 294 and introduced the song:
 295
 296 &quot;Up in East Kentucky around Harlan and Perry County, the coal miner sings a
 297 little song called the 'Nine Pound Hammer.'...
 298
 299 Based on this intro, many people assumed Merle Travis being from &quot;around
 300 Harlan and Hazard&quot; (he was from Ebenezer, KY, about 200 miles away), so that
 301 he himself had to say the following about &quot;Nine Pound Hammer&quot; in later
 302 years:
 303
 304 &quot;It's strange that folks would get mixed up about the old hammer song. I've
 305 sung about Heaven all my life, and nobody ever thought I was from there.&quot;
 306
 307 Anyhow &ndash; this has been my rather condensed analysis of the different song
 308 families containing &quot;buddy&quot; and &quot;roll&quot; &ndash; I hope that nobody's more confused
 309 than before.

 325 <p>3) Finally I get the chance to add a quotation myself. The line </p>
 326
 327 <p><em>I eat when I'm hungry, I drink when I'm dry</em> <br>
 328 &nbsp; <br>
 329 could be &quot;stolen&quot; from Moonshine Blues (sung, i.a., on the second Gaslight
 330 tape), where it goes: </p>
 331
 332 <p><em>I eat when I'm hungry, I shine when I'm dry</em> </p>
 333
 334 <p>Or, as <a href="mailto:donaghcronin@unison.ie">donaghcronin@unison.ie</a> points out,
 335 &quot;from a song by the clancy brothers which goes </p>
 336
 337 <blockquote>
 338   <p><em>I'll eat when I'm hungry I'll drink when I'm dry<br>
 339   and if whisky doesn't kill me, I'll live till I die</em></p>
 340 </blockquote>
 341
 342 <p>The Clancy Brothers were also the source of the tune for <a href="../03_times/withgod.htm"><em>With God on our Side</em></a>. The original song was <em>The
 343 patriot game</em> written by dominic behan, brother of brendan.&quot;</p>
