Em          Em7          C           B7 
Some people say a man is made out of mud
  Em         Em7         C          B7 
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood
Em                   Am 
Muscle and blood and skin and bone
  Em--- 
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons and whad do you get?
  Em        Em7       C         B7 
Another day older and deeper in debt
      Em                          Am 
Saint Peter don't ya call me 'cause I can't go
  Em---                  
I owe my soul to the company store

If ya hear me coming, you better step aside
A lotta men din't and a lotta men died
With one fist of iron and the other of steel
If the right one don't getcha then the left one will

I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine
Picked up my shovel and I went to the mine
Loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the strawboss said, "Well, Bless my soul!"

I was born one morning in the drizzling rain
Fighting and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebreak by and old mama hound
Ain't no high-tone woman gonna push me around.
