Sixteen Tons - Blacanblus

Some people say a man

Is made outta' mud

A poor man's made muscle and blood

Say muscle and blood and skin and bones

Mind that's a weak and a back that's strong

Sixteen tons what do you get

Yaa

Another day older and deeperin debtsaint

Hoo

So Peter don't you

Call me 'Cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

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

Sun didn't shine

I picked up my shovel and I walked to the

Mine

I walked to the mine

I loaded sixteen tons of number 9 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 Peter don't you call me 'Cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain

Rain is wet

Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

Mm

I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama

Lion

Cain't no a high toned woman make me walk the

Aloe

I sixteen tons what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Deeper in debt

Peter don't you call me 'Cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

Oo ya ya ya ya ya ya

If you see me

Ooo

If she call me

Best step aside

A lotta men didn't a lotta men died

One fist of iron the other of steel

If the right one don't a get you then the

Left one will

A load sixteen tons what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint Peter 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 outta' mud

Made outta' mud

A poor man's made outta' muscle and blood

Muscle and blood and skin and bones

Skin and bone

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

You load sixteen tons what do you get

Ya

Another day older and deeper in debtsaint

Peter don't you

Call me 'Cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

You load sixteen tons what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debtsaint

Deeper in debtsaint

Peter don't you

Call me 'Cause I can't go

I owe my soul

Ooo

I owe my soul

To the company store

Sixteen tons what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debtsaint

Deeper in debtsaint

Peter don't you

Call me 'Cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

Yaaa
