天邊一朵雲裡面的靜心等/張露 的原曲
偶然聽到覺得很棒 大概是在講煤礦工人的歌
Lyrics for Song: Sixteen Tons - Tennessee Ernie Ford
Lyrics for Album: Classic Country: 1950-1964
1.
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
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
2.
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"
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
3.
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
Cain't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line
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
4.
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
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
(中文翻譯-副歌部份只寫一次)
1.
有人說這個男人是個沒用的東西 有血有肉但是個窮光蛋
血肉之軀但骨瘦如柴 思想軟弱但臂膀堅強
副歌.
拖運了十六噸煤，你掙得了什麼？又一天的衰老和更深重的債務
聖人彼得不用叫我，因為我不能走 我欠著公司--自己的靈魂呢
2.
我在黎明前的早晨醒來 拿起了鐵鏟，我走向煤礦
我拖運了十六噸的九號煤 工頭的助手說："噢！我的天！"
3.
我出生在一個綿綿細雨的早晨 困境和鬥爭是我當中的名字
我在樹林中被"母老虎"養大 這個卑鄙的女人讓我走上了這條路
4.
看見我過來，你最好閃到一邊 許多小子沒讓開，結果這些傢夥都玩完
我給了他們一鐵拳接著是另一拳 要是右邊一拳沒打中，左邊一拳就會打中
