《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Frankie laine/Jo Stafford

[00:00:02] Some people say a man is made out of mud

[00:00:11] A poor man＇s made out of muscle and blood

[00:00:14] Muscle and blood and skin and bones

[00:00:17] A mind that＇s weak and a back that＇s strong

[00:00:22] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:00:25] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:00:29] Saint Peter don＇t you call me ＇cause I can＇t go

[00:00:34] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:00:36] I was born one morning when the sun didn＇t shine

[00:00:48] I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

[00:00:52] I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

[00:00:55] And the straw boss said well a bless my soul

[00:00:59] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:01:02] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:01:06] Saint Peter don＇t you call me ＇cause I can＇t go

[00:01:11] I owe my soul to the company store
