[F]
[Bbm] [F] I [Bbm] don't have no demons
Some folks say a man's [F] made out of mud
[Bbm] But a poor man's made [Gb] out of muscle [F] and blood
[Bbm] Muscle and blood
[Ebm] Skin and bone
[Bbm] A mind that's weak [F] and a pack [Bbm] that's strong
Yeah
[A] You [Bbm] load sixteen tons
[Gb] And what do [F] you get?
[Bbm] Another day older [Gb] and [F] deeper in debt
St.
[Bb] Peter, don't you call me
[Ebm] Cause I can't go
[Bbm] My soul [F] to the [Bbm] company's
Yeah
[Dm] I [Bbm] was born [Gb] when the sun [F] didn't shine
[Bbm] I became a man who would [Gb] work [F] in the mine
[Bbm] I loaded sixteen [Ebm] tons of number nine coal
[Bbm] The poor man said, [F] well, the [Bbm] bless of my soul
[Gb] In [F] drizzling [Bbm] rain
Fighting in trouble [Gb] is [F] my middle name
[Bbm] When I come around, [Ebm]
better step aside
[Bbm] A lot of men [F] did and a lot of [Bbm] men died
Yes, I did
You load sixteen [Gb] tons
And [F] what do you get?
[Bbm] Another day older [Gb] and [F] deeper in debt
[Bb] St.
Peter, don't you call [Ebm] me
Cause I can't go

Peter, don't you call me
[Ebm] Cause I can't go
