Sixteen Tons |
Some people say man is made out of mud |
A poor man’s made out of muscle and blood |
Muscle and blood and skin and bone |
A mind that’s a-weak and a back that’s strong |
You load sixteen tons and what do you get |
Another day older and deeper in debt |
Saint Peter don’t you call me 'cause I can’t go |
I owe my soul to the company store |
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn’t shine |
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine |
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal |
And the store-boss said the «Well-a bless my soul» |
You load sixteen tons and what do you get |
Another day older and deeper in debt |
Saint Peter don’t you call me 'cause I can’t go |
I owe my soul to the company store |
I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain |
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name |
I was raised in the cane-brake by an old mama lion |
Cain’t no a high-tone woman make me walk the line |
You load sixteen tons and what do you get |
Another day older and deeper in debt |
Saint Peter don’t you call me 'cause I can’t go |
I owe my soul to the company store |
If you see me comin', better step aside |
A lot of men didn’t and a lot of men died |
One fist of iron, the other of steel |
If the right one don’t git ya, then the left one will |
You load sixteen tons and what do you get |
Another day older and deeper in debt |
Saint Peter don’t you call me 'cause I can’t go |
I owe my soul to the company store |
