歌詞

Some people say a man is made outta mud A poor man's made outta muscle and blood Muscle and blood and skin and bone A mind that's weak and a back that's strong You load sixteen tons and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt Saint Peter don't you call me, 'cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul" You load sixteen tons and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt Saint Peter don't you call me, 'cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain Fightin' and trouble are my middle name Raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion Ain't no a-high toned woman make me walk the line You load sixteen tons and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt Saint Peter don't you call me, 'cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store Heeey, if you see me comin', better step aside A lotta men didn't, and a lotta men died With one fist of iron and the other of steel If the right one don't get you, then the left one will You load sixteen tons and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store
