I found out about this site from a friend. Go to letssingit.com, click on search, type in sixteen tons in the search box, click on the arrow in the next box to reveal a drop down box and click on 'song name', then click on go. It'll come up with the lyrics for this song! :-)

Hi - Your Q brought back memories - my parents had this song by Tennessee Ernie Ford. Another lyrics site if you should need it. Happy singing! http://ntl.matrix.com.br/pfilho/oldies_list/top/ly

forgottEn, not forgottOn. And you don't need the ' ' marks around the word, either!
