Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Sixteen Stone
Hi, Abuwood - Unually, it's best if you can tell us what you recall of the lyrics of the song, not just the title. Titles can be profoundly confusing. First thing I thought of was:
You load sixteen stone, and what do you get,
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me, 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
That's not it, is it? [grin] Well, I think Mudcatter Liz the Squeak sings a song called "Sixteen Stone." I'll send her a personal message and ask her to check this thread. Check the thread a few times in the next few days to see if she replies.
