Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - The Platters[00:00:00]
Some people say a man is made outta mud[00:00:00]
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood[00:00:11]
Muscle and blood and skin and bones[00:00:16]
A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong[00:00:20]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:00:25]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:30]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:00:34]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:00:38]
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine[00:00:57]
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine[00:01:02]
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal[00:01:06]
And the straw boss said well a bless my soul[00:01:11]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:01:15]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:20]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:24]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:29]
I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain[00:01:46]
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name[00:01:51]
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion[00:01:56]
Cain't no a high toned woman make me walk the line[00:02:00]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:02:05]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:02:10]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:02:14]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:02:19]
If you see me comin' better step aside[00:02:37]
A lotta men didn't a lotta men died[00:02:41]
One fist of iron the other of steel[00:02:46]
If the right one don't a get you then the left one will[00:02:50]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:02:55]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:02:59]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:03:04]
I owe my soul[00:03:12]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:03:28]
