《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons - Rodéo

[00:00:00] Composed by：Merle Travis

[00:00:36] Some people say a man is made outta mud

[00:00:40] A poor man's made outta muscle and blood

[00:00:44] Muscle and blood and skin and bones

[00:00:47] A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong

[00:00:50] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:00:55] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:00:58] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:02] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:16] I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine

[00:01:20] I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

[00:01:23] I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

[00:01:27] And the straw boss said well a-bless my soul

[00:01:30] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:01:34] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:01:37] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

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

[00:01:55] I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain

[00:01:59] Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

[00:02:03] I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion

[00:02:07] Cain't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line

[00:02:10] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:02:14] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:02:17] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

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

[00:02:55] If you see me comin' better step aside

[00:02:58] A lotta men didn't a lotta men died

[00:03:02] One fist of iron the other of steel

[00:03:05] If the right one don't a-get you then the left one will

[00:03:09] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:03:13] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:03:16] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:03:21] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:03:24] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:03:28] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:03:31] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:03:35] I owe my soul to the company store
