16 tons - The Platters

16 tons
       س
      

Some people say a man is made outt mud
      , ...
A poor man's made outta muscle 'n blood...
      ' ...
Muscle an' blood, skin an' bone
      ' ,
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong
      .

refrain:
     
You load sixteen tons an' whaddya get?
      ³ 16 ? 
Another day older an' deeper in debt
      .
Saint Peter doncha call me 'cause I can't go
      , , .
I owe my soul to the company sto'
     () .
 
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
      , ,
I picked up my shovel and I went to the mine
      ,
Loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
      ³ 16 9
And the strawboss said, "Well, Bless my soul!"
      : , , !

refrain:

If ya see me a-comin' ya better step aside
      , , .
A lotta men din't an' a lotta men died
      , , .
With one fist of iron an' the other of steel
      , - .
If the right one don' getcha then the left one will.
      , - .

refrain:

I was born one mornin' in the drizzlin' rain
      , .
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
      " " - '.
I was raised in the canebrake by an old mountain mine, 
     
And there ain't no hard hearted womn make me walk that line!      
      ...

refrain:

:
I was raised in the canebreak by an old mama lion,
Can't no high-toned woman makes me walk the line.
