Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Jack Parnell & His Orchestra

Sixteen tons what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint brother don't you call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

Some people say a man is made out of mud

A poor man's made out of muscle and blood

Muscle and blood and skin and bones

A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint brother don't you call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine

I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

And the straw boss said well a bless my soul

You load sixteen tons what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint brother don't you call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

If you see me coming better step aside

A lot of men didn't a lot of men died

One fist of iron and the other of steel

If the right one don't

Get you then the left one will

You load sixteen tons what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint brother don't you call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store
