Ol' Man River Lyrics

Ol' man river
That ol' man river
he must know something
But he don't say nothing

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
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
Yes I' am sick of trying
I'm tired of living and I'm
Feared of dying
But ol' man river
Keeps rolling along

You and me
We gotta sweat and strain
Body all aching
And it's wracked with pain
Tote that barge
Lift that bale
Get a little drunk
And you land in jail
I get's weary
Yes I' am sick of trying
I'm tired of living and I'm
Feared of dying
But that ol' man river
Keeps rolling along
