Old Man River
Old man river, that old man river
He don't hear nothin', he don't say nothin'
He keeps on rollin', he keeps on rollin' along
Rollin' along
He don't plant tatters, he don't plant cotton
And them that plants 'em, are soon forgotten
But old man river, he keeps on rollin' along
Rollin' along
You and me, we sweat, sweat and strain
Body's all achin', racked, racked with pain
Tote that barge and lift that bail
Get a little drunk and you land in jail
I get weary, sick of trying
I'm tired of livin', but I'm scared of dyin'
But old man river, he just keeps rollin' along (just keeps rollin')
Oh, he's rollin'
I don't know how (just keeps rollin')
He keeps on rollin'
I don't know, I don't know how he do it, yeah (just keeps rollin')
He keeps on rollin' (just keeps rollin')
Ah, eh
He keeps on rollin' (just keeps rollin')
He don't hear nothin', he don't say nothin'
He keeps on rollin', he keeps on rollin' along
Rollin' along
He don't plant tatters, he don't plant cotton
And them that plants 'em, are soon forgotten
But old man river, he keeps on rollin' along
Rollin' along
You and me, we sweat, sweat and strain
Body's all achin', racked, racked with pain
Tote that barge and lift that bail
Get a little drunk and you land in jail
I get weary, sick of trying
I'm tired of livin', but I'm scared of dyin'
But old man river, he just keeps rollin' along (just keeps rollin')
Oh, he's rollin'
I don't know how (just keeps rollin')
He keeps on rollin'
I don't know, I don't know how he do it, yeah (just keeps rollin')
He keeps on rollin' (just keeps rollin')
Ah, eh
He keeps on rollin' (just keeps rollin')
