Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Frank Tovey[00:00:00]

People say a man is made outta mud[00:00:15]

But a poor man's made outta muscle and blood[00:00:18]

Muscle and blood and skin and bones[00:00:22]

A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong[00:00:25]

You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:00:28]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:32]

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

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

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine[00:00:45]

I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine[00:00:49]

I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal[00:00:52]

And the straw boss said well a bless my soul[00:00:55]

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

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

Saint 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[00:01:15]

Fightin' and trouble is my middle name[00:01:19]

I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion[00:01:22]

Cain't no a high-toned woman make me walk the line[00:01:25]

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

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:32]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:36]

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

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

A lotta men didn't a lotta men died[00:01:49]

One fist of iron the other of steel[00:01:53]

If the right one don't a get you[00:01:56]

Then the left one will[00:01:57]

You load sixteen tons what do you get[00:01:59]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:02:03]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:02:06]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:02:09]
