以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I was born one morning when
我出生在那个阴沉的清晨
The sun didn't shine
当阳光不曾照耀
I picked up my shovel and
我扛起铁锹
I walked to the mine
走向漆黑的矿道
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
十六吨九号煤层压弯我的腰
And the straw boss said (well bless my soul)
工头却说（老天开眼瞧）
You load sixteen tons what do you get
挖十六吨煤换来了什么
Another day older and deeper in debt
徒增年岁 债台更高
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得请别召唤我 因我无法离去
I sold my soul to the company's store
我已将灵魂卖给了公司商铺
If you see me coming better step aside
若见我走来最好让开道路
A lot of men didn't a lot of men died
多少同伴倒下 多少性命不复
I've got one fist of iron the other of steel
我左手如钢铁 右手似铁铸
And if the right one don't
若右拳未能
Get you then the left one will
击中你 左拳必让你臣服
You load sixteen tons what do you get
挖十六吨煤换来了什么
Another day older and deeper in debt
徒增年岁 债台高筑
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得别召唤我 我无处可去
I owe my soul to the company's store
我的灵魂已卖给公司商铺
Some people say a man is made out of mud
有人说凡人本是尘土塑
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood
穷汉的血肉铸就筋骨
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
血肉之躯 皮包骨头
A mind that is weak and a back that's strong
意志消沉 脊梁却硬如铁铸
You load sixteen tons what do you get
挖十六吨煤换来了什么
Another day older and deeper in debt
徒增年岁 债台更高
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得别召唤我 我无处可去
I owe my soul to the company's store
我的灵魂已卖给公司商铺
