Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]
Some people say a man is made outta mud[00:00:08]
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood[00:00:12]
Muscle and blood and skin and bones[00:00:15]
A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong[00:00:18]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:00:22]
You ger another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:26]
Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:00:29]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:00:32]
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine[00:00:42]
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine[00:00:46]
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal[00:00:49]
The straw boss said well a bless my soul[00:00:52]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:00:56]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:00]
Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:02]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:06]
I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain[00:01:15]
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name[00:01:19]
If you see me comin' better step aside[00:01:23]
A lotta men didn't a lotta men died[00:01:26]
You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:01:29]
You get another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:33]
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 owe my soul to the company store[00:01:48]
