sixteen tons - louis neefs lyrics

Loading...

now right back from germany
we introduce the fabulous lou neefs

some people say a man is made out of mud
a poor man’s made out of muscle and blood
muscle and blood and skin and bones
a mind that’s weak and a back that’s strong

refrain
you loaded sixteen tons
what do you get ?
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter don’t you call me
cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store

i was born one morning 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 straw boss said : “wella bless my soul”

refrain

if you see me comin’, better step aside
a lot of man didn’t, a lot of man died
one fist of iron, the other of steel
of the right one doesn’t get you, then the left one will

refrain
