Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Tennessee Ernie Ford[00:00:00]

Some people say a man[00:00:05]

Is made outta mud[00:00:08]

A poor man's made[00:00:10]

Outta muscle and blood[00:00:11]

Muscle and blood[00:00:13]

And skin and bones[00:00:14]

A mind that's a-weak[00:00:17]

And a back that's strong[00:00:18]

You load sixteen tons [00:00:20]

What do you get[00:00:21]

Another day older[00:00:23]

And deeper in debt[00:00:25]

Saint Peter don't you[00:00:26]

Call me 'cause I can't go[00:00:28]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:00:30]

I was born one mornin'[00:00:39]

When the sun didn't shine[00:00:42]

I picked up my shovel[00:00:43]

And I walked to the mine[00:00:45]

I loaded sixteen tons[00:00:46]

Of number nine coal[00:00:48]

And the straw boss said[00:00:49]

"Well a-bless my soul"[00:00:51]

You load sixteen tons [00:00:53]

What do you get[00:00:54]

Another day older[00:00:56]

And deeper in debt[00:00:58]

Saint Peter don't[00:00:59]

You call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:01]

I owe my soul to[00:01:03]

The company store[00:01:05]

I was born one mornin' [00:01:12]

It was drizzlin' rain[00:01:15]

Fightin' and trouble[00:01:17]

Are my middle name[00:01:18]

I was raised in the[00:01:20]

Canebrake by an ol' mama lion[00:01:21]

Cain't no-a high-toned[00:01:23]

Woman make me walk the line[00:01:23]

You load sixteen tons[00:01:26]

What do you get[00:01:28]

Another day older[00:01:29]

And deeper in debt[00:01:31]

Saint Peter don't you[00:01:33]

Call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:34]

I owe my soul[00:01:36]

To the company store[00:01:38]

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

Better step aside[00:01:49]

A lotta men didn't [00:01:51]

A lotta men died[00:01:52]

One fist of iron [00:01:54]

The other of steel[00:01:56]

If the right[00:01:57]

One don't a-get you[00:01:58]

Then the left one will[00:01:59]

You load sixteen tons [00:02:01]

What do you get[00:02:02]

Another day older[00:02:04]

And deeper in debt[00:02:06]

Saint Peter don't you[00:02:07]

Call me 'cause I can't go[00:02:09]

I owe my soul to[00:02:10]

The company store[00:02:25]
