Song Lyrics

if the right one don t git ya
then the left one will
you load sixteen tons and what do you get
i owe my soul to the company store
saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go
You load sixteen tons and what do you get, it was drizzlin rain

You load sixteen tons and what do you get, i picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine, it was drizzlin rain
If the right one don t git ya, saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go
Another day older and deeper in debt, i was born one mornin when the sun didn t shine, another day older and deeper in debt
you load sixteen tons and what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt, i loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
Another day older and deeper in debt, fightin and trouble are my middle name, another day older and deeper in debt

you load sixteen tons and what do you get
if the right one don t git ya
Saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go, fightin and trouble are my middle name
A poor man s made out of muscle and blood, a lot of men didn t and a lot of men died, a lot of men didn t and a lot of men died
i was born one mornin
I owe my soul to the company store, i was raised in the cane-brake by an old mama lion

i was raised in the cane-brake by an old mama lion
Saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go, if the right one don t git ya, i was born one mornin when the sun didn t shine
if the right one don t git ya
another day older and deeper in debt
I owe my soul to the company store, i loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
Another day older and deeper in debt, one fist of iron

I owe my soul to the company store, cain t no a high-tone woman make me walk the line
A poor man s made out of muscle and blood, a poor man s made out of muscle and blood
Another day older and deeper in debt, cain t no a high-tone woman make me walk the line
Fightin and trouble are my middle name, a poor man s made out of muscle and blood, if you see me comin
i was born one mornin when the sun didn t shine
Some people say man is made out of mud, i owe my soul to the company store The, saint peter don t you call me cause i can t go

i was born one mornin when the sun didn t shine
i was born one mornin
