《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)

[00:00:08] Some people say a man is made out of mud

[00:00:13] A poor man's made out of muscle and blood

[00:00:16] Muscle and blood and skin and bones

[00:00:20] A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong

[00:00:23] You load sixteen tons, what do you get

[00:00:26] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:00:30] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:00:33] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:00:42] I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine

[00:00:47] I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

[00:00:50] I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

[00:00:54] And the straw boss said ＂Well, a-bless my soul

[00:00:57] You load sixteen tons, what do you get

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

[00:01:04] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:08] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:17] I was born one morning, it was drizzling rain

[00:01:22] Fighting and trouble are my middle name

[00:01:25] Raised in the Canebrake by an old mama lion

[00:01:28] Ain't no a high-toned woman make me walk the line

[00:01:32] You load sixteen tons, what do you get

[00:01:35] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:01:39] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:42] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:52] If you see me coming better step aside

[00:01:57] A lot of men didn't, and a lot of men died

[00:02:00] With one fist of iron, and the other of steel

[00:02:04] If the right one don't get you then the left one will

[00:02:07] You load sixteen tons, what do you get

[00:02:11] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:02:14] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:02:21] I owe my soul to the company store
