STAN RIDGWAY "SIXTEEN TONS" Lyrics

Stan Ridgway Sixteen Tons Lyrics:
Sixteens Tons
===========

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

You load sixteen tons, 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

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
[ Find more Lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.org/L6jG ]
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the strawboss said,
"Well, bless my soul!"
(Chorus)

I was born one mornin', it was drizllin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the cane break by an ol' mama lion
Cain't no high-tone woman make me walk the line
(Chorus)

If you see me comin' better step aside
A lot of men didn't, a lot of men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
And if the right one don't get
you, then the left one will
(Chorus)
