|
| Ol' man river
|
| That ol' man river
|
| He don’t say nothing
|
| But he must know something
|
| Cause he just keeps rolling
|
| He keeps rolling along
|
| He don’t plant tators
|
| He don’t plant cotton
|
| Them that plants 'em is soon forgotten
|
| But ol' man river
|
| He just keeps rolling along
|
| You and me
|
| We sweat and strain
|
| Body all aching
|
| And wracked with pain
|
| Tote that barge
|
| Lift that bale
|
| Get a little drunk
|
| And you land in jail
|
| I gets weary
|
| Sick of trying
|
| I’m tired of living
|
| Feared of dying
|
| But ol' man river
|
| He’s rolling along |
