16 Tons歌词

[00:00.00]16Tons -Tom Lardner /Allfreedom
[00:14.450]Some people say a man is made out of mud
[00:17.750]A poor man's made out of muscle and blood
[00:21.249]Muscle and blood and skin and bones
[00:24.159]A mind that's weak and a back that's strong
[00:27.399]You load 16tons what do you get
[00:31.208]Another day older and deeper in debt
[00:34.638]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[00:37.698]I owe my soul to the company store
[00:40.517]Shh
[00:53.724]I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine
[00:58.144]I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
[01:00.894]Loaded 16tons of number nine coal
[01:04.334]And the straw boss said Well a-bless my soul
[01:07.374]16tons what do you get
[01:11.254]Another day older and deeper in debt
[01:14.334]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[01:17.684]I owe my soul to the company store
[01:20.754]Yeah
[01:34.174]I was born one morning it was drizzling rain
[01:38.154]A-fighting and trouble are my middle name
[01:40.594]I was raised in the canebrake by an ol'mama lion
[01:43.794]Ain't no boss man live make me walk the line
[01:47.583]I load 16tons what do you get
[01:50.942]Another day older and deeper in debt
[01:54.102]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[01:57.781]I owe my soul to the company store
[02:26.161]So if you see me coming better step aside
[02:30.571]A lot of men didn't a lot of men died
[02:33.481]One fist of iron the other of steel
[02:36.401]If the right one don't get you
[02:38.301]Then the left one will
[02:39.721]You load 16tons and what do you get
[02:43.461]Another day older and deeper in debt
[02:46.581]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[02:53.520]I owe my d a m n soul
