Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Jimmy Dean[00:00:00]
Some people say a man is made outta mud[00:00:08]
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood[00:00:11]
Muscle and blood skin and bones[00:00:15]
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong [00:00:18]
You load sixteen tons an' what do you get[00:00:21]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:25]
St Peter don't you call me cause I can't go[00:00:28]
I owe my soul to the company store [00:00:32]
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine[00:00:43]
I picked up a shovel an' I walked out to the mine[00:00:47]
I loaded sixteen tons of Number 9 coal[00:00:51]
An' the store boss said: "Well bless my soul "[00:00:54]
You load sixteen tons an' what do you get[00:00:58]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:02]
St Peter don't you call me cause I can't go[00:01:05]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:09]
I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain[00:01:20]
Fightin' an' trouble was my middle name[00:01:24]
I was raised in the canebreak by an old mama lion[00:01:28]
Can't no high-toned woman makes me walk the line[00:01:31]
You load sixteen tons an' what do you get[00:01:35]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:39]
St Peter don't you call me cause I can't go[00:01:42]
I owe my soul to the company store [00:01:46]
If you see me comin' better step aside[00:01:57]
A lotta men didn't an' a lotta men died[00:02:01]
One fist of iron the other of steel[00:02:05]
If the right one don't get you then the left one will[00:02:08]
You load sixteen tons an' what do you get[00:02:12]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:02:16]
St Peter don't you call me cause I can't go[00:02:19]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:02:25]
