《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons - Lorne Greene

[00:00:28] Some people say a man is made out of mud

[00:00:32] A poor man's made out of muscle and blood

[00:00:35] Muscle and blood skin and bones

[00:00:39] A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong

[00:00:42] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:00:47] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:00:50] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:00:54] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:00:58] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:05] I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine

[00:01:09] I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

[00:01:13] I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

[00:01:16] And the straw boss said

[00:01:18] Well a bless my soul

[00:01:20] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:01:24] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:01:28] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:31] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:35] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:43] I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain

[00:01:47] Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

[00:01:50] Raised in the Canebrake by an old mama lion

[00:01:54] Ain't no a high toned woman make me toast the line

[00:01:57] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:02:02] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:02:05] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:02:08] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:02:13] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:02:20] If you see me comin' better step aside

[00:02:24] A lot of men didn't a lot of men died

[00:02:28] One fist of iron the other of steel

[00:02:31] If the right one don't get you then the left one will

[00:02:35] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:02:39] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:02:43] Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:02:46] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:02:50] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:02:54] Yes I owe my soul to the company store
