the weavers - sixteen tons (remastered) lyrics
well now, some folks say a man is made outta mud
but a poor man’s made outta muscle and blood
muscle and blood, skin and bone
a mind that’s weak and a back that’s strong
you load sixteen tons, whadda you get?
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
well, i was born one mornin’ when the sun didn’t shine
i grabbed my shovel, and i went to the mine
i loaded sixteen tons number nine coal
straw boss hollered, “well, d+mn your soul”
you load sixteen tons, whadda you get?
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
well, i was born one mornin’ in the drizzlin’ rain
fightin’ trouble been my middle name
see me comin’ you better step aside
a lot of men didn’t, and a lot of men died
you load sixteen tons, whadda you get?
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 owe my soul to the company store
