Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Hit Co. Masters[00:00:00]
Some people say a man is made out of mud[00:00:08]
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood[00:00:13]
Muscle and blood and skin and bones[00:00:16]
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong[00:00:19]
You load sixteen tons, what do you get[00:00:23]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:27]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:00:30]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:00:33]
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[00:00:47]
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal[00:00:50]
And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"[00:00:54]
You load sixteen tons, what do you get[00:00:57]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:01]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:04]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:08]
I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain[00:01:17]
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name[00:01:22]
Raised in the Canebrake by an old mama lion[00:01:25]
Ain't no a high-toned woman make me walk the line[00:01:28]
You load sixteen tons, what do you get[00:01:32]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:36]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:39]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:42]
If you see me comin', better step aside[00:01:52]
A lot of men didn't, and a lot of men died[00:01:57]
With one fist of iron, and the other of steel[00:02:00]
If the right one don't get you then the left one will[00:02:04]
You load sixteen tons, what do you get[00:02:07]
Another day older and deeper in debt[00:02:11]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:02:14]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:02:21]
