Letra de la canción 'SIXTEEN TONS' de 'TENNESSEE ERNIE FORD'

Some people say a man is made outta mud
a poor manand's made outta muscle and blood
muscle and blood and skin and bones
a mind thatand's a-weak and a back thatand's strong
you load sixteen tons, what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter donand't you call me and'cause i canand't go
i owe my soul to the company store
I was born one morninand' when the sun didnand'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 andquot;well, a-bless my soulandquot;
you load sixteen tons, what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter donand't you call me and'cause i canand't go
i owe my soul to the company store
I was born one morninand', it was drizzlinand' rain
fightinand' and trouble are my middle name
i was raised in the canebrake* by an oland' mama lion
cainand't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line
you load sixteen tons, what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter donand't you call me and'cause i canand't go
i owe my soul to the company store
If you see me cominand', better step aside
a lotta men didnand't, a lotta men died
one fist of iron, the other of steel
if the right one donand't a-get you, then the left one will
you load sixteen tons, what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter donand't you call me and'cause i canand't go
i owe my soul to the company store
