Sixteen Tons - Merle Travis[00:00:01]

You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:00:03]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:06]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:00:09]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:00:12]

Some people say a man is made outta mud[00:00:52]

A poor man's made outta muscle and blood[00:00:55]

Muscle and blood and skin and bones[00:00:58]

A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong[00:01:01]

You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:01:04]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:07]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:09]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:12]

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine[00:01:18]

I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine[00:01:21]

I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal[00:01:24]

And the straw boss said well a bless my soul[00:01:26]

You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:01:29]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:33]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:35]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:39]

I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain[00:01:47]

Fightin' and trouble are my middle name[00:01:50]

I was raised in the canebrake* by an ol' mama lion[00:01:53]

Cain't no a high toned woman make me walk the line[00:01:56]

You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:01:58]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:02:01]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:02:04]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:02:07]

If you see me comin' better step aside[00:02:21]

A lotta men didn't a lotta men died[00:02:24]

One fist of iron the other of steel[00:02:27]

If the right one don't a get you then the left one will[00:02:30]

You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:02:33]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:02:36]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:02:39]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:02:42]
