Well, I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine

I said pick up my shovel and I walked to the mine
yeah, em
I loaded sixteen tons number nine coal
Oho, Oho
And the staw boss said"well,bless my soul"
yeah, hoo
you load 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
Because I owe my soul to the company store
Well, If you see me come, better step aside
yeah, em
I said a lot men didn't, a lot lot lot men died
yeah, em
Well, One fist of iron, the other of stee
Well, If the right one don't get you Then the left one will
yeah
you load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me'cuase I can't go
Because I owe my soul, woh, oh, oh, to the company store
Hey, hey, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Take me back home

Take me back home now
