Merle Travis - Sixteen Tons - Live paroles de chanson

paroles de chanson Sixteen Tons - Live - Merle Travis



Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man′s made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that′s strong
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me, 'cause I can′t go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin′ when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said: "Well, a-bless my soul!"
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don′t you call me, 'cause I can′t go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin′ rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Cain′t no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter 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 lotta men didn′t, a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't a-get you, then the left one will
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don′t you call me, 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
