lirik lagu rockapella - sixteen tons
i was born in a drivin’ rain
(yes you was…mmhmm)
it was more of a drizzle…
fightin’ and trouble been my middle name
(nasty boy…look out)
when i come ’round better step aside
well alotta men didn’t
and alotta men died
(doom doom doom doom ba doom)
doom boode doo doode doo doo
well some folks say a man is made out of mud
a poor man’s made out of muscle and blood
muscle and blood, and skin and bone…
gotta mind that’s weak and a back that’s strong
chorus:
sixteen tons, whatta 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 sto’
when i was born, that sun didn’t shine
along came a man who worked in a mine
i shoveled sixteen tons of number 9 coal
and the foreman said “well bless my soul!”
(chorus)
you see me comin’, better step aside
alotta men didn’t, alotta men died.
i got one fist of iron the other is steel
if the left one don’t getcha,
then the right one will!
(chorus)
(ya know sixteen tons)
sixteen tons…
(a-whatta you get?)
what do you get?
(another day older and deeper in debt)
ohhhh…so many broke!
st. pete don’tcha call me, cuz i can’t go.
i owe my soul
(i owe my soul)
i owe my soul
(ooo i owe my soul)
i owe my soul
(oooo owe it to tha company sto’)
company sto’-o-owee-o-do
be-de-whoa-whoa-o-be-do-do-be-do-do
o-o-obe-do-do-be-de-do
i owe my soul….
to the company stooooo’
