[00:00.73]16 Tons  - Robbie  Williams
[00:04.60]Some people say a man is made out of mud
[00:10.03]A poor man's made out of muscle and blood
[00:13.33]Muscle and blood and skin and bones
[00:16.58]A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
[00:19.64]You load sixteen tons, what do you get
[00:22.88]Another day older and deeper in debt
[00:26.32]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[00:29.43]I owe my soul to the company store
[00:32.81]
[00:38.42]I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
[00:42.73]I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
[00:46.03]I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
[00:49.28]And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"
[00:52.58]You load sixteen tons, what do you get
[00:55.71]Another day older and deeper in debt
[00:59.14]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[01:02.45]I owe my soul to the company store
[01:05.81]
[01:11.43]I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
[01:15.67]Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
[01:18.98]Raised in the Canebrake by an old mama lion
[01:22.29]Ain't no a high-toned woman make me walk the line
[01:25.84]You load sixteen tons, what do you get
[01:28.72]Another day older and deeper in debt
[01:32.21]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[01:35.39]I owe my soul to the company store
[01:38.84]
[01:45.27]If you see me comin', better step aside
[01:49.82]A lot of men didn't, and a lot of men died
[01:52.82]With one fist of iron, and the other of steel
[01:56.13]If the right one don't get you then the left one will
[01:59.49]You load sixteen tons, what do you get
[02:02.68]Another day older and deeper in debt
[02:05.86]Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
[02:10.29]
[02:12.47]I owe my soul to the company store
