Sixteen Tons[00:00:00]

Merle Travis[00:00:02]

Some people say a man is made outta mud [00:00:05]

A poor man's made outta muscle and blood [00:00:10]

Muscle and blood and skin and bones [00:00:13]

A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong [00:00:16]

You load sixteen tons, what do you get? [00:00:20]

Another day older and deeper in debt [00:00:23]

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go [00:00:26]

I owe my soul to the company store [00:00:30]

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine [00:00:38]

I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine [00:00:43]

I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal [00:00:46]

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 [00:00:56]

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go [00:00:59]

I owe my soul to the company store [00:01:03]

I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain [00:01:12]

Fightin' and trouble are my middle name [00:01:16]

I was raised in the canebrake* by an ol' mama lion [00:01:20]

Cain't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line [00:01:23]

You load sixteen tons, what do you get? [00:01:26]

Another day older and deeper in debt [00:01:30]

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go [00:01:33]

I owe my soul to the company store [00:01:36]

If you see me comin', better step aside [00:01:46]

A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died [00:01:51]

One fist of iron, the other of steel [00:01:54]

If the right one don't a-get you, then the left one will [00:01:57]

You load sixteen tons, what do you get? [00:02:00]

Another day older and deeper in debt [00:02:04]

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go [00:02:07]

I owe my soul to the company store [00:02:13]
