What Are The Lyrics For Sixteen Tons By Stevie Wonder?
(I'm a hardworking man)
Some folks say a man is made outta mud A poor man's made outta muscle and blood A muscle and blood, skin and bone A mind that's weak and a back that's strong, yeah You load sixteen tons and what do ya 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, yeah I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine I became a man who would work in the mine I loaded sixteen tons of number 9 coal The foreman said, "Well, a-bless my soul" I was born one mornin' and it was drizzlin' rain Fightin' and trouble is my middle name When I better come around, you'd better step aside A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died, yes they did You load sixteen tons and what do ya 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 Yeah sing it one time with me You load sixteen tons and what do ya 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 Everybody hummin' on me Mhm, mmh (yeah) Mhm, mmh |
