old elementary school songs! <3 recappin good times

[killer_happines]

Some people say a man is made out of mud
Well a poor man’s made out of muscle and blood
Well, muscle and blood, skin and bone
And a mind that’s weak and a back that’s strong

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Well another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter don’t you call me, cause I can’t go
Cause I owe my soul to the company store

Well I was born one morning, the sun didn’t shine
I picked up my shovel, I walked to the mine
I load sixteen tons on the number 9 coal
And the straw boss said ‘well bless my soul’

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Well another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter don’t you call me, cause I can’t go
Cause I owe my soul to the company store

If you see me coming, better step aside
Cause a lot of men didn’t, and a lot of men died
I got one fist of iron, the other’s of steel
And if the right one don’t get ya, the left one will

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Well another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter don’t you call me, cause I can’t go
Cause I owe my soul

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Well another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter don’t you call me, cause I can’t go
Cause I owe my soul to the company store

The Button Song

Hi, my name is Joe.

I got a wife and three kids,

I work in a button factory.

One day, the boss came to me and said,

“Joe, are you busy?” I said no,

He said push this button with your right hand.

There is a flower
Within my heart,
Daisy, Daisy!
Planted one day
By a glancing dart,
Planted by Daisy Bell!
Whether she loves me
Or loves me not,
Sometimes it's hard to tell;
Yet I am longing to share the lot -
Of beautiful Daisy Bell!

Daisy, Daisy,
Give me your answer do!
I'm half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won't be a stylish marriage,
I can't afford a carriage
But you'll look sweet upon the seat
Of a bicycle made for two.

We will go 'tandem'
As man and wife,
Daisy, Daisy!
'Peddling' away
Down the road of life,
I and my Daisy Bell!
When the road's dark
We can both despise
P'licemen and 'lamps' as well;
There are 'bright lights’
In the dazzling eyes
Of beautiful Daisy Bell!

Daisy, Daisy,
Give me your answer do!
I'm half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won't be a stylish marriage,
I can't afford a carriage
But you'll look sweet upon the seat
Of a bicycle made for two.

I will stand by you
In 'wheel' or woe,
Daisy, Daisy!
You'll be the bell(e)
Which I'll ring you know!
Sweet little Daisy Bell!
You'll take the 'lead'
In each 'trip' we take,
Then if I don't do well,
I will permit you to
Use the brake,
My beautiful Daisy Bell!

One day, the boss came to me and said,

“Joe, are you busy?” I said YES!!!
