Sixteen Tons - The Weavers[00:00:01]
Written by:Merle Travis[00:00:02]
Will man some fakes say a man is made out of mud[00:00:07]
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood[00:00:11]
Muscle and blood skin and bones[00:00:14]
A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong[00:00:18]
You load sixteen tons and what do you get[00:00:21]
You get another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:24]
Saint 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]
Will I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine[00:00:41]
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine[00:00:45]
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal[00:00:48]
And the straw boss holly well a bless your soul[00:00:52]
You load sixteen tons and what do you get[00:00:55]
You get another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:58]
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:02]
I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:05]
What I was born one morning in the drizzling rain[00:01:15]
Fighting and trouble been my middle name[00:01:18]
You see me coming you better step aside[00:01:22]
A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died[00:01:25]
You load sixteen tons and what do you get[00:01:29]
You get another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:32]
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 owe my soul to the company store[00:01:49]
