Some people say a man is made outta mud

有人说男人是泥土做的

A poor man's made outta muscle and blood

可怜的人是血肉之躯

Muscle and blood and skin and bone

肌肉血液皮肤骨骼

With a mind that's weak and a back that's strong

脆弱的心灵坚强的后盾

You load sixteen tons what do you get

你负重十六吨你能得到什么

Another day older and deeper and debt

新的一天更加苍老更加深沉债台高筑

St Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

圣彼得请别给我打电话因为我不能走

I owe my soul to the company store

我的灵魂都归功于公司商店

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine

我出生在一个阳光黯淡的早晨

I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine

我拿起铁锹走向矿井

Loaded sixteen tons of No 9 coal

装了十六吨九号煤

And the storeboss said well bless my soul

商店老板说上帝保佑我的灵魂

You load sixteen tons what do you get

你负重十六吨你能得到什么

Another day older and deeper and debt

新的一天更加苍老更加深沉债台高筑

St Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

圣彼得请别给我打电话因为我不能走

I owe my soul to the company store

我的灵魂都归功于公司商店

I was born one mornin' it was drizzlin' rain

我在一个清晨出生那时淅淅沥沥

Figtin' and trouble are my middle name

胡作非为和惹是生非是我的中间名

Raisin' the cane break by an old mountain lion

举起拐杖被一只老美洲狮打断

Ain't no hightoned woman makes me walk the line

没有别的女人让我循规蹈矩

You load sixteen tons what do you get

你负重十六吨你能得到什么

Another day older and deeper and debt

新的一天更加苍老更加深沉债台高筑

St Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

圣彼得请别给我打电话因为我不能走

I owe my soul to the company store

我的灵魂都归功于公司商店

If you see me comin' better step aside

如果你看见我来了最好躲到一边去

A lotta men didn't a lotta men died

死了很多人

One fist of iron the other of steel

一只铁拳一只铁拳头

If the right one don't get you then the left one will

如果右边的人不懂你左边的人会懂你

You load sixteen tons what do you get

你负重十六吨你能得到什么

Another day older and deeper and debt

新的一天更加苍老更加深沉债台高筑

St Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go

圣彼得请别给我打电话因为我不能走

I owe my soul to the company store

我的灵魂都归功于公司商店
