[00:06.25]Some people say a man is made outta mud
[00:11.38]A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
[00:14.60]Muscle and blood and skin and bones
[00:18.20]A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
[00:21.76]Sixteen tons what do you get
[00:25.22]Another day older and deeper in debt
[00:28.40]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[00:31.86]I owe my soul to the company store
[00:41.00]I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
[00:46.59]I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
[00:50.00]Sixteen tons of number nine coal
[00:53.44]And the straw boss said "Well a-bless my soul"
[00:57.16]Sixteen tons what do you get
[01:00.68]Another day older and deeper in debt
[01:03.86]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[01:07.28]I owe my soul to the company store
[01:17.04]I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain
[01:22.16]Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
[01:25.13]I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
[01:28.78]Can't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line
[01:32.69]Sixteen tons what do you get
[01:36.14]Another day older and deeper in debt
[01:39.31]Saint Peter don't you call me cause I can't go
[01:43.03]I owe my soul to the company store
[01:52.79]If you see me comin' better step aside
[01:57.80]A lotta men didn't a lotta men died
[02:01.32]One fist of iron the other of steel
[02:04.52]If the right one don't a-get you then the left one will
[02:08.46]Sixteen tons what do you get
[02:12.05]Another day older and deeper in debt
[02:15.13]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[02:21.17]I owe my soul to the company store
