[verse 1]
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

[chorus]
you load sixteen tons and what do you get?
another day older and deeper in debt
st. peter, don’t you call me
’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store
(we’re not going back to those days of 16 tons)

[half-chorus]
st peter, don’t you call me
’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store

(we’re not going back to those days of 16 tons)

[verse 2]
i was born one morning when the sun didn’t shine
i picked up my shovel and i walked to the minе
i loaded 16 tons of number 9 coal
and the straw bus said wеll bless my soul

[chorus]
well 16 tons and what do you get
another day older and deeper in debt
st. peter, don’t you call me
’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store

(we’re not gonna be takin’ the red line, w’ere taking the green line to prosperity)

[verse 3]
i was born one morning
it was drizzling rain
fightin’ and trouble are my maiden name
i was raised in the chain break by an old mama lion
god no, no don’t make me walk the line
[chorus]
16 tons and what do you get
another day older and deeper in debt
st. peter, don’t you call me
’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store

[verse 4]
if you see me comin’, better step aside
a lotta men didn’t and a lotta men died
i got a fist of iron and a fist of steel
if the right one don’t get you
then the left one will

[chorus]
load 16 tons and what do you get
another day older and deeper in debt
st. peter, don’t you call me
’cause i can’t go. .

i owe my soul to the company store
