《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:11] Some people say a man is made out of mud

[00:00:15] A poor man's made out of muscle and blood

[00:00:18] 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

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

[00:00:32] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:00:46] I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine

[00:00:49] 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] Then the straw boss said well a bless my soul

[00:00:58] You load sixteen tons and 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

[00:01:07] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:20] I was born one morning it was drizzling rain

[00:01:24] Fighting and trouble are my middle name

[00:01:27] Raised in the canebrake by an old mama lion

[00:01:29] Ain't no a high toned woman make me walk the line

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

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

[00:01:38] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:41] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:55] If you see me coming better step aside

[00:01:58] A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died

[00:02:01] One fist of iron and the other of steel

[00:02:04] If the right one don't

[00:02:05] Get you then the left one will

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

[00:02:10] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:02:13] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:02:18] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:02:28] I owe my soul to the company store
