letra de sixteen tons - edmund hockridge

Loading...

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
brother 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
loaded sixteen tons of number-nine coal
and the straw boss said, “well-a bless a-my soul!”

you load sixteen tons, what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
brother don’t you call me, ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store

i was born one morning, it was drizzlin’ rain
fightin’ and trouble are my middle name
i was raised in the cane break by an old mama lion
can’t no high-toned woman make me walk a-that line

you load sixteen tons, what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
brother 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 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 a-getcha then the left one will

you load sixteen tons, what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
brother don’t you call me, ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store
