《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons - The Nighthawks

[00:00:09] Some people say a man is made out of mud

[00:00:14] A poor man's made out of muscle and blood

[00:00:18] Muscle and blood and skin and bones

[00:00:21] A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong

[00:00:26] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:00:29] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:00:33] Saint peter don't you call me cause i can't go

[00:00:37] I owe my soul to the company store

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

[00:00:45] I picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine

[00:00:49] I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

[00:00:53] 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

[00:01:05] Saint peter don't you call me cause i can't go

[00:01:09] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:36] I was born one morning it was drizzling rain

[00:01:41] Fighting and trouble are my middle name

[00:01:44] I was raised in the canebrake by an old mama lion

[00:01:48] Ain't no a high toned woman make me walk the line

[00:01:52] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:01:56] Another day older and deeper in debt

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

[00:02:04] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:02:43] If you see me coming better step aside

[00:02:47] A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died

[00:02:52] With one fist of iron and the other of steel

[00:02:55] If the right one don't get you then the left one will

[00:02:59] You load sixteen tons what do you get

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

[00:03:07] Saint peter don't you call me cause i can't go

[00:03:11] I owe my soul to the company store
