Some people say a man is made out of mud |
| [00:10.14] |
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood |
| [00:13.47] |
Muscle and blood and skin and bones |
| [00:16.71] |
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong |
| [00:19.65] |
You load sixteen tons, whattaya get? |
| [00:23.40] |
Another day older and deeper in debt |
| [00:26.25] |
St. Peter don'cha call me, 'cause I can't go |
| [00:29.97] |
I owe my soul to the company store |
| [00:38.49] |
I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine |
| [00:43.38] |
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine |
| [00:46.35] |
I loaded sixteen tons of number-nine coal |
| [00:49.71] |
And the straw boss said, |
| [00:51.15] |
"Well bless my soul!" |
| [00:52.83] |
You load sixteen tons, whattaya get? |
| [00:56.61] |
Another day older and deeper in debt |
| [00:59.52] |
St. Peter don'cha call me, 'cause I can't go |
| [01:03.24] |
I owe my soul to the company store |
| [01:11.82] |
I was born one morning, it was drizzlin' rain |
| [01:16.53] |
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name |
| [01:19.77] |
I was raised in the canebreak by an old mama lion |
| [01:22.89] |
Can't no high -toned woman make me walk the line |
| [01:26.28] |
You load sixteen tons, whattaya get? |
| [01:30.09] |
Another day older and deeper in debt |
| [01:33.00] |
St. Peter don'cha call me, 'cause I can't go |
| [01:36.72] |
I owe my soul to the company store |
| [01:47.61] |
If you see me comin' better step aside |
| [01:51.27] |
A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died |
| [01:54.60] |
One fist of iron, the other of steel |
| [01:57.63] |
If the right one don't getcha then the left one will |
| [02:00.63] |
You load sixteen tons, whattaya get? |
| [02:04.47] |
Another day older and deeper in debt |
| [02:07.32] |
St. Peter don'cha call me, 'cause I can't go |
| [02:13.71] |
I owe my soul to the company store |
