Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - The Platters[00:00:00]

Some people say a man is made out of mud[00:00:00]

A poor man's made out of muscle and blood[00:00:06]

And muscle and blood skin and bones[00:00:09]

A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong[00:00:13]

You load sixteen tons and what do you get[00:00:17]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:21]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:00:24]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:00:28]

I was born one morning[00:00:34]

When the sun didn't shine[00:00:38]

I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine[00:00:40]

I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal[00:00:43]

That the straw boss said well a bless my soul[00:00:47]

You load sixteen tons and what do you get[00:00:51]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:00:55]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:00:58]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:02]

If you see me coming better step aside[00:01:08]

A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died[00:01:14]

A one fist of iron and the other of steel[00:01:17]

If the right one don't[00:01:21]

Get you then the left one will[00:01:22]

You load sixteen tons and what do you get[00:01:25]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:29]

Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:32]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:36]

I was born one morning it was drizzling rain[00:01:42]

Fighting and trouble are my middle name[00:01:48]

I was raised in the canebrake by an old mama lion[00:01:51]

Ain't no a high toned woman make me walk the line[00:01:55]

You load sixteen tons and 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[00:02:13]
