geoff castellucci – sixteen tons lyrics
some people say a man is a+made out of mud
a poor man’s made out of muscle and blood
a+muscle and blood and a+skin and bones
you’ve got a mind that’s weak and a back that’s strong
you load a+sixteen tons and what do you get?
another day older and a+deeper in debt
st. peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store
(st. peter don’t you call me)
’cause i can’t go
(st. peter don’t you call me)
to the company store
(st. peter)
a+don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store, come on
hmmmm hmmmm
hmmmm hmmmm
well i was born on a 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, bless my soul!”
you load sixteen tons and what do you get?
another day older and a+deeper in debt
st. a+peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store, yeah
i was born one morning in the drizzling rain
a+fighting and trouble have been my middle name
i was raised in the cane break by an old mama lion
can’t no a+high toned woman make me walk the line
yeah, sixteen tons and what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
st. peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store
(owe my soul soul soul)
if you see me coming, better step aside
a lotta men didn’t, a lotta men died
a+one fist of iron and the other of steel
(if the left one don’t get you then the) right one will
you load
a+sixteen tons
(what do you get?)
another day older and a+deeper in debt
st. a+peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store
(st. peter don’t you call me)
’cause i can’t go
(st. peter don’t you call me)
to the company store
st. peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul
to the company store
(st. peter don’t you call me)
’cause i can’t go
