Sixteen Tons - Tom Jones

Written by：Merle Travis

Some people say a man is made out of mud

A poor man's made out of muscle and blood

Muscle and blood skin and bones

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

You load sixteen tons and what a you get the

Another day older and deeper in debt

Said peter don'cha 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 sixteen tons of number nine coal

Straw boss the said well bless my soul

You load sixteen tons and what a you get the

Another day older and deeper in debt

Said peter don'cha call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one morning it was drizzlin' rain

Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

I was raised in the came break

By an old mama lion

Can't no a high toned woman make me walk the line

You load sixteen tons and what a you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Said peter don'cha call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

If you see me comin' better step aside

A lotta men didn't a lotta men died

I got one fist of iron the other of steel

If the right one don't getcha then the left one will

You load sixteen tons and what a you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Said peter don'cha call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store
