Sixteen Tons

~Sixteen tons~

Some people say a man is made out of mud.
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood.
Muscle and blood and skin and bones,
A mind that's 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 morning 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.”

If you see me coming, better step aside.
A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died.
One fist of iron, the other of steel-
If the right one don't 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?

If the right one don't get you then the left one will!
One fist of iron, the other of steel-
A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died.
If you see me coming, better step aside.

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 morning 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 weak and a back that's strong.
Muscle and blood and skin and bones,
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood.
Some people say a man is made out of mud.

when something is wrong with my baby

time lock

young folks

swagged out with tags out

1000 miles

chemistry of a car crash

blues ain't nothin'

my cat's name is maceo

who'd have known

make it right tonight

all for you

nothing to lose

when you love someone by drop n harmony
