Sixteen Tons Tennessee Ernie Ford

Some people say a man is made outta mud

A poor man's made outta muscle and blood

Muscle and blood and skin and bones

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

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' 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

And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain

Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion

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

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint Peter don't you 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

One fist of iron, the other of steel

If the right one don't a-get you

Then the left one will

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

I owe my soul to the company store

Mirror lyrics:

I owe my soul to the company store

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

Another day older and deeper in debt

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

Then the left one will

If the right one don't a-get you

One fist of iron, the other of steel

A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died

If you see me comin', better step aside

I owe my soul to the company store

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

Another day older and deeper in debt

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

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

I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion

Fightin' and trouble are my middle name

I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain

I owe my soul to the company store

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

Another day older and deeper in debt

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"

I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal

I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine

I owe my soul to the company store

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

Another day older and deeper in debt

You load sixteen tons, what do you get

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

Muscle and blood and skin and bones

A poor man's made outta muscle and blood

Some people say a man is made outta mud
