Some people say a man is made outta mud,
a poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones,
a mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong.

Refr.
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;
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 straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul".

I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain,
fightin' and trouble are my middle name.
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion,
can't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line

If you see me comin', better step aside;
a lotta men didn't, a lotta men died.
One fist of iron, the other of steel.
if the right one don't a-get you, then the left one will.
