  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
  
  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 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 well a bless my soul
  
  [Chorus]
  
  I was born one morning it was drizzling rain
  Fighting and trouble are my middle name
  I was raised in the canebreak by an old mama lion
  Ain't no high tone woman make me walk the line
  
  [Chorus]
  
  If you see me coming better step aside
  A lot of men didn't a lot of men died
  One fist of iron the other of steel
  If the right one don't get you then the left one will[Chorus]
