Violent lyrics will be the death of us all.

[Ptah]

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 get you
Then the left one will

[rsdsharp]

1. That song's even older than I am. It hasn't killed me yet.

[perfessor]

2. I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine

Picked up my shovel, went down to the mine

That’s a line that always grabs me by the gut.

[LoisB]

4. Mine is "I owe my soul to the company store"

These days: the mortgage co., Visa, MasterCard...

[msongs]

3. to be fair ya dont hear much about pea pickers anymore nt

[Ptah]

6. "If the good Lord's willin', and the creek don't rise"

And bless your pea pickin' heart.

[rockbluff botanist]

5. Tennessee Ernie Ford

My parents loved his singing.

I like Geoff Castellucci's version of Sixteen Tons. Google it. He has an amazing vocal range. He's a good Florida Man.
