Best #LaborDay song ever written:

“Sixteen Tons” by Merle Travis

For me, “I owe my soul to the company store” is every day

My favorite version is The Platters.

There’s a B.B. King version out there, but good luck finding it (if you do please link).

enjoy

@Nonilex This is new to me, and I love it. Was a little kid when the Tennessee Ernie Ford version was a hit. His deep voice and the lyrics caught my ear and scared me a little.
