"Sixteen Tons" singer
I believe the answer is:
ford
'sixteen tons singer' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for ford that I've seen before include "Place to cross river" , "Shallow part of river for crossing" , "White paint for the face" , "Shallow place for river crossing" , "Henry ...., first mass producer of cars" .)
