Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Em]Some people say a
man is made out of mud
A poor man's made of muscle and blood
[B]Mus[Em]cle and blood, skin and[Am] bone
Well, a [B]mind as weak and
a back that strong
You load those [Em]16 tons,
what do you get?
Another day holder
and a neighbor in debt
[B]Saying [Em]Peter don't you call
me cause [Am]I can't go
I [B]owe my soul to the company
[Em]store[B][Em]
I was born one morning
when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel
and I walked through the mine
[B]I loa[Em]ded sixteen tons of number[Am]
nine coal in a [B]straw for a cent
Boy bless my soul
you load six[Em]teen tons of
water you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
[B]Saint [Em]Peter don't you call
me cause I [Am]can't go
I [B]owe my soul to the company
[Em]store[B][Em]
I was born one mornin' it was [E]dizzlin' rain
[B]Fightin'[Em] and trouble
isn't my middle name
[B]I was rai[Em]sed in a cave
by an [Am]old momma lion
No [B]high -toned momma
makes me walk the line
You load [Em]six teen tons,
what do you get?
Another day bored and [E]deeper [Em]in debt
[B]St. [Em]Peter, don't you call me,
cause I [Am]can't go
I [B]owe my soul to the com
[Em]pany [B]store[Em][B][Em]
If you see me [B]come better [E]step [Em]aside
A lot of men didn't, a lot of men died
[B]I only got one[Em] fist of iron, the oth[Am]er is steel
If my [B]right doesn't get you,
then my left one will
You load six[Em]teen tons,
what do you get?
Another day holder and paper in debt
[B]St. [E]Peter, don't you [Em]call
me cause [Am]I can't go
I [B]owe my soul to the company [Em]store
You
