## Summary

Sixteen Tons a cappella choral octavo for TBB voices, arranged by Kirby Shaw, featuring words and music by Merle Travis.

## Description

It's been performed by Elvis, Stevie Wonder, and a host of others, but it was the Tennessee Ernie Ford recording that brought this song to national attention and the top of the Billboard charts. Great voice-leading and a tight rhythmic groove make it fun to sing.
