Вступление
[Verse 1]
Gm D7
Some people say a man is made outta mud
Gm D7
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Gm Cm
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
Gm N.C.
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
[Chorus]
D7 Gm D7
You load sixteen tons and what do you get?
Gm D7
Another day older and deeper in debt
Gm Cm
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
Gm N.C.
I owe my soul to the company store
[Verse 2]
Gm D7
I... was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
Gm D7
I picked up my shovel and walked to the mine
Gm Cm
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
Gm N.C.
And the straw boss said 'Well, a-bless my soul'
[Chorus]
D7 Gm D7
You load sixteen tons and what do you get?
Gm D7
Another day older and deeper in debt
Gm Cm
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
Gm N.C.
I owe my soul to the company store
[Verse 3]
D7 Gm D7
If... you see me comin', better step aside
Gm D7
A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died
Gm Cm
My one fist's iron, the other steel
Gm N.C.
And if the right one don't getcha then the left one will
[Chorus]
D7 Gm D7
You load sixteen tons and what do you get?
Gm D7
Another day older and deeper in debt
Gm Cm
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
Gm N.C.
I owe my soul to the company store
[Verse 4]
D7 Gm D7
I... was born one mornin' and it was drizzlin' rain
Gm D7
A-fightin' and trouble are my middle name
Gm Cm
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Gm N.C.
Can't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line
[Chorus]
D7 Gm D7
You load sixteen tons and what do you get?
Gm D7
Another day older and deeper in debt
Gm Cm
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
N.C.
I owe my soul
D7 N.C.
To the company store
