Some people say a man is made out of mud

EmAm
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
CBb7Em
А mind that's weak and a back that's strong.
Chorus:
EmCBb7
You load sixteen tons what do you get
EmCBb7
Another day older and deeper in debt
Em
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
CBb7Em
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
CBb7Em
And the straw boss said well a bless my soul
Chorus:
EmCBb7
You load sixteen tons what do you get
EmCBb7
Another day older and deeper in debt

Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
CBb7Em
I owe my soul to the company store.
