sixteen tons is quite heavy, on the opposite scale the rolling stones -'2000 light years from home' sounds a lot lighter...ahem

@bvfeyj (Tucker)

Dis week me pick is "Gentle on My Mind" by Glen Campbell. Why? In 1967 it was da hit which launched Glen Campbell as a solo artist. Den in 1975 he recorded "Ernie Sings & Glen Picks" wif Tennessee Ernie Ford! Dat da link!

@diamondbertie
Erie Canal by Pete Seeger because it is also a tribute to heroic toil and the tune is very similar.

@djladylexie
