Some people say a man is made out'a mud, (ah-uh-)
A poor man made out'a muscle and blood, (ah-uh-)
Muscle and blood, skin and bones, (-uh-)
A mind that's weak and the back that's strong. (ah-uh-)

You load sixteen tons and what do you get? (ah-uh-)
Another day older and deeper in debt. (ah-uh-)
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go, (-uh-)
I owe ma-ay soul to the company store.

I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine, (ah-uh-)
I picked up my shovel and walked to the mine, (ah-uh-)
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal, (-uh-)
And the store boss said: "Well, bless my soul!" (ah-uh-)

You load sixteen tons and what do you get? (ah-uh-)
Another day older and deeper in debt. (ah-uh-)
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go, (-uh-)
I owe ma-ay soul to the company store.

If you see me coming - better step aside, (ah-uh-)
A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died. (ah-uh-)
My one feast of iron, the other of steel, (-uh-)
If the right one don't getcha then the left one will! (ah-uh-)

You load sixteen tons and what do you get? (ah-uh-)
Another day older and deeper in debt. (ah-uh-)
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go, (-uh-)
I owe ma-ay soul to the company store.

I was born one morning and it was drizzling rain, (ah-uh-)
Fighting and Trouble'a my middle name, (ah-uh-)
I was raised in a canebrake by an old mama lion, (-uh-)
Ain't no high-tone women make me walk the line! (ah-uh-)

You load sixteen tons and what do you get? (ah-uh-)
Another day older and deeper in debt. (ah-uh-)
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go, (-uh-)
I o-owe ma-ay so-ooo-oul to the company store-.
