《Sixteen Tons》歌词

[00:00:01] Sixteen Tons - Merle Travis

[00:00:03] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:00:06] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:00:09] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:00:12] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:00:52] Some people say a man is made outta mud

[00:00:55] A poor man's made outta muscle and blood

[00:00:58] Muscle and blood and skin and bones

[00:01:01] A mind that's a weak and a back that's strong

[00:01:04] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:01:07] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:01:09] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:12] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:18] I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine

[00:01:21] I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

[00:01:24] I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

[00:01:26] And the straw boss said well a bless my soul

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

[00:01:33] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:01:35] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:01:39] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:01:47] I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain

[00:01:50] Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

[00:01:53] I was raised in the canebrake* by an ol' mama lion

[00:01:56] Cain't no a high toned woman make me walk the line

[00:01:58] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:02:01] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:02:04] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:02:07] I owe my soul to the company store

[00:02:21] If you see me comin' better step aside

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

[00:02:27] One fist of iron the other of steel

[00:02:30] If the right one don't a get you then the left one will

[00:02:33] You load sixteen tons what do you get

[00:02:36] Another day older and deeper in debt

[00:02:39] Saint peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

[00:02:42] I owe my soul to the company store
