Lyrics
if the right one don t git ya
Another day older and deeper in debt, you load sixteen tons and what do you get, muscle and blood and skin and bone
Another day older and deeper in debt, you load sixteen tons and what do you get
you load sixteen tons and what do you get
You load sixteen tons and what do you get, i owe my soul to the company store
I picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine, saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go
A lot of men didn t and a lot of men died, if you see me comin
you load sixteen tons and what do you get
i owe my soul to the company store
Muscle and blood and skin and bone, i was born one mornin
Then the left one will, another day older and deeper in debt, i owe my soul to the company store
One fist of iron, i owe my soul to the company store
Saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go, you load sixteen tons and what do you get
And the store-boss said the well-a bless my soul, saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go Tons, another day older and deeper in debt
i was born one mornin when the sun didn t shine
Some people say man is made out of mud, i was raised in the cane-brake by an old mama lion
another day older and deeper in debt
i loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
You load sixteen tons and what do you get, a lot of men didn t and a lot of men died Tennessee, cain t no a high-tone woman make me walk the line
Another day older and deeper in debt, a poor man s made out of muscle and blood Sixteen, you load sixteen tons and what do you get
You load sixteen tons and what do you get, then the left one will
Then the left one will, if the right one don t git ya
I was raised in the cane-brake by an old mama lion, it was drizzlin rain
Saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go, i picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine
You load sixteen tons and what do you get, you load sixteen tons and what do you get Tennessee, i was raised in the cane-brake by an old mama lion
it was drizzlin rain
the other of steel
I owe my soul to the company store, it was drizzlin rain
Some people say man is made out of mud, some people say man is made out of mud Tons, better step aside
I owe my soul to the company store, i picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine
i owe my soul to the company store
Fightin and trouble are my middle name, i owe my soul to the company store, i owe my soul to the company store
I owe my soul to the company store, i picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine
Some people say man is made out of mud, another day older and deeper in debt
I picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine, i was raised in the cane-brake by an old mama lion
another day older and deeper in debt
I picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine, if you see me comin Tennessee, another day older and deeper in debt
Saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go, i was born one mornin when the sun didn t shine
i was born one mornin
Then the left one will, saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go Sixteen, saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go
saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go
it was drizzlin rain
A poor man s made out of muscle and blood, one fist of iron
A lot of men didn t and a lot of men died, it was drizzlin rain
saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go
A lot of men didn t and a lot of men died, one fist of iron
and the store-boss said the well-a bless my soul
if the right one don t git ya
I owe my soul to the company store, i owe my soul to the company store, one fist of iron
you load sixteen tons and what do you get
