Some people say a man is made out of mud
A poor man`s made out of mud and muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that`s weak and a back that`s strong
You load sixteen tons, what do 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 store
I was born one mornin` when the sun didn`t shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the strawboss said, Send " Sixteen Tons" Ringtone to your Cell
