I love Tennessee Ernie Ford's version of this song and would sing it with friends constantly, I remember hearing this song in a south park episode as well. 
One day I woke up and just felt like doing a metal version of it. 
I do not own copyrights of this song but I did write, arrange and record this version.
Enjoy !

Sixteen Tons (Merle Travis, Tennessee Ernie Ford - Metal Cover)

Self taught musician, I've played with several bands across Europe, organised gigs, wrote music and recorded cds. After covid I entered a cinema school near Paris to study audio in its multiple forms. It fed my new interest in creating sounds for video games, animations and composing music.
