Allen Reynolds - Sixteen Tons Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some people say a man is made out of mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood, and skin and bones
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong

[Chorus]
You haul (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

[Verse 2]
I was born one day when the sun didn't shine
I fetched my shovel and I headed for the mine
I hauled sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the boss man said, "Well, bless my soul!"

[Chorus]
You haul (sixteen tons) and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in dеbt
St. Peter, don't you call me, 'causе I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
Well, if you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't and a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right don't get you, then the left one will

[Chorus]
You haul (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

[Outro]
Hey hey!
Ooh yeah
