[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Various Artists (欧美群星)/Travis Merle/Tennessee Ernie Ford

[00:00:04] Some people say a man

[00:00:08] Is made outta' mud

[00:00:10] A poor man's made

[00:00:11] Outta' muscle and blood

[00:00:13] Muscle and blood and

[00:00:15] Skin and bones

[00:00:16] A mind that's a weak and

[00:00:18] A back that's strong

[00:00:19] You load sixteen tons

[00:00:22] What do you get

[00:00:23] Another day older

[00:00:24] And deeper in debt

[00:00:26] Saint peter don't you

[00:00:27] Call me 'cause I can't go

[00:00:30] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:00:38] I was born one mornin'

[00:00:41] When the sun didn't shine

[00:00:43] I picked up my shovel and

[00:00:45] I walked to the mine

[00:00:46] I loaded sixteen tons

[00:00:48] Of number 9 coal

[00:00:49] And the store boss said

[00:00:51] Well a bless my soul

[00:00:52] You load sixteen tons

[00:00:55] What do you get

[00:00:56] Another day older and

[00:00:58] Deeper in debt

[00:00:59] Saint peter don't you

[00:01:00] Call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:03] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:12] I was born one mornin'

[00:01:14] It was drizzlin' rain

[00:01:16] Fightin' and trouble are

[00:01:18] My middle name

[00:01:19] I was raised in the canebrake

[00:01:21] By an ol' mama lion

[00:01:23] Cain't no a high toned

[00:01:24] Woman make me walk the line

[00:01:26] You load sixteen tons

[00:01:28] What do you get

[00:01:30] Another day older and

[00:01:31] Deeper in debt

[00:01:33] Saint peter don't you

[00:01:34] Call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:36] I owe my soul to the

[00:01:39] Company store

[00:01:46] If you see me comin'

[00:01:49] Better step aside

[00:01:51] A lotta men didn't

[00:01:52] A lotta men died

[00:01:54] One fist of iron the

[00:01:56] Other of steel

[00:01:57] If the right one don't a get

[00:01:59] You then the left one will

[00:02:00] You load sixteen tons

[00:02:02] What do you get
