《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Barner-Wittrock/Henrik Barner/Morten Wittrock

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

[00:00:05] I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

[00:00:10] I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

[00:00:15] And the straw boss said well a bless my soul

[00:00:20] 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

[00:00:35] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:00:40] Some people say a man is made outta mud

[00:00:46] A poor man's made outta muscle and blood

[00:00:51] Muscle and blood and skin and bones

[00:00:56] A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong

[00:01:01] Sixteen tons what do you get

[00:01:06] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:01:11] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:16] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:21] I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain

[00:01:26] Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

[00:01:31] I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion

[00:01:35] Can't no a high-toned woman make me walk the line

[00:02:21] If you see me comin' better step aside

[00:02:27] A lotta men didn't and a lotta men died

[00:02:32] One fist of iron the other of steel

[00:02:37] If the right one don't a get you

[00:02:39] Then the left one will

[00:02:42] Sixteen tons what do you get

[00:02:47] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:02:52] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:03:01] I owe my soul to the company store
