Written by:Merle Travis
Some people say a man is made outta mud
有人说人不过是泥土捏成
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
穷苦人却由血肉铸就
Muscle and blood and skin and bone
血肉之躯 筋骨相连
With a mind that's weak and a back that's strong
意志薄弱却背负千斤重担
You load sixteen tons what do you get
背负十六吨煤 换来什么
Another day older and deeper and debt
徒增年岁 债台高筑
St Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得别召唤我 我无法前往
I owe my soul to the company store
我的灵魂已抵押给矿场商店
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
我出生在一个没有阳光的清晨
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
拿起铁锹走向漆黑的矿井
Loaded sixteen tons of No 9 coal
装载十六吨九号煤层
And the storeboss said well bless my soul
工头假惺惺地说老天开眼
You load sixteen tons what do you get
背负十六吨煤 换来什么
Another day older and deeper and debt
徒增年岁 债台高筑
St Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得别召唤我 我无法前往
I owe my soul to the company store
我的灵魂已抵押给矿场商店
I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain
我出生在细雨蒙蒙的清晨
Figtin' and trouble are my middle name
纷争与苦难是我的宿命
Raisin' the cane break by an old mountain lion
在深山老林里开垦荒地
Ain't no hightoned woman makes me walk the line
再高傲的女人也管不住我
You load sixteen tons what do you get
背负十六吨煤 换来什么
Another day older and deeper and debt
徒增年岁 债台高筑
St Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得别召唤我 我无法前往
I owe my soul to the company store
我的灵魂已抵押给矿场商店
If you see me comin' better step aside
若见我走来 最好让开道
A lotta men didn't a lotta men died
多少汉子倒下 多少性命不保
One fist of iron the other of steel
左手铁拳右手钢掌
If the right one don't get you then the left one will
右拳落空左拳必中
You load sixteen tons what do you get
背负十六吨煤 换来什么
Another day older and deeper and debt
徒增年岁 债台高筑
St Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得别召唤我 我无法前往
I owe my soul to the company store
我的灵魂已抵押给矿场商店
