Sixteen Tons - Tom Jones (汤姆·琼斯)[00:00:00]

Written by：Merle Travis[00:00:01]

Some people say a man is made out of mud[00:00:09]

Well a poor man's made outta muscle and blood[00:00:14]

Muscle and blood[00:00:18]

Skin and bone[00:00:21]

A mind[00:00:23]

That's weak and a back that's strong[00:00:23]

You load sixteen tons and whaddaya get[00:00:27]

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

Saint peter don'tcha call me[00:00:36]

'Cause I can't go[00:00:38]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:00:40]

I was born one morning[00:00:49]

When the sun didn't shine[00:00:51]

I picked up his shovel[00:00:54]

And walk to the mines[00:00:56]

I loaded sixteen tons number nine coal[00:00:58]

Till boss said[00:01:03]

Well uh bless my soul[00:01:05]

You load sixteen tons and whaddaya get on[00:01:07]

Another day older and deeper in dept[00:01:12]

Saint peter don'tcha call me[00:01:16]

'Cause I can't go[00:01:18]

I owe my soul to the company store[00:01:20]

I was born one mornin it was drizzlin' rain[00:01:29]

Fightin' and trouble are my middle name[00:01:34]

I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion[00:01:39]

Cain't no a high toned woman make me[00:01:43]

Walk the line[00:01:46]

You load sixteen tons and what do you get[00:01:47]

Another day older and deeper in debt[00:01:52]

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go[00:01:57]

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

If you see me comin' better step aside[00:02:10]

A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died[00:02:15]

I got one fist of iron[00:02:19]

The other of steel[00:02:22]

And the right one doesn't[00:02:23]

Get you then the list one will[00:02:25]

You load sixteen tons and whaddaya get[00:02:28]

Another day older and deeper in dept[00:02:32]

Saint peter don'tcha call me[00:02:37]

'Cause I can't go[00:02:39]

I owe my soul[00:02:43]

To the company[00:02:50]

Store[00:02:54]
