psychic plowboys - 16 tons lyrics

some people say a man is made out of mud
all man’s made out of muscle and blood
muscle and blood and skin and bones
a mind thats a weak and a back that’s strong
you load 16 tons
whadda 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
i was born one morning when the sun didn’t shine
i picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine
i loaded 16 tons of number 9 coal
and the straw boss said well a bless my soul
you load 16 tons
whadda 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
i was born one morning it was drizzling rain
fighting and trouble are my middle name
i was raised in a cane brake by an old mother lion
aint no high tone woman make me walk the line
you load 16 tons
whadda 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
if you see me coming better step aside
a lot of men didn’t
a lot of men died
one fist of iron
the other of steel
if the right one don’t get yer
then the left one will
you load 16 tons
whadda 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 yeah to the company store
