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[00:00:06]
Muscle and blood and skin and bones[00:00:10]
A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong[00:00:14]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:00:18]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:21]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:00:26]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:00:29]
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine[00:00:36]
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine[00:00:42]
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal[00:00:45]
And the straw boss said Well a bless my soul[00:00:49]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:00:53]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:57]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:01]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:05]
If you see me comin' better step aside[00:01:11]
A lotta men didn't a lotta men died[00:01:17]
One fist of iron the other of steel[00:01:21]
If the right one don't a get you then the left one will[00:01:24]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:01:28]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:32]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:36]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:40]
I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain[00:01:46]
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name[00:01:52]
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion[00:01:55]
Cain't no a high toned woman make me walk the line[00:01:59]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:02:03]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:02:07]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:02:11]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:02:18]
