《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:00] Sixteen Tons (十六吨) - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)

[00:00:08] Some people say a man is made outta mud

[00:00:12] A poor man's made outta muscle and blood

[00:00:15] Muscle and blood and skin and bones

[00:00:18] A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong

[00:00:22] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:00:26] You ger another day older and deeper in debt

[00:00:29] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:00:32] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:00:42] I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine

[00:00:46] I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

[00:00:49] I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

[00:00:52] The straw boss said well a bless my soul

[00:00:56] You load sixteen tons what do you get

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

[00:01:02] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:06] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:15] I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain

[00:01:19] Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

[00:01:23] If you see me comin' better step aside

[00:01:26] A lotta men didn't a lotta men died

[00:01:29] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:01:33] You get another day older and deeper in debt

[00:01:36] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:40] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:48] I owe my soul to the company store
