Ol' Man River - Live

Ol' man river, that ol' man river
He must know something but don't say nothing
He just keeps rolling
He keeps on rolling along

He don't plant taters, he don't plant cotton
And then that plants 'em
They're soon forgotten
But ol' man river
He just keeps rolling along

You and me, we sweat and strain
Bodies all aching and racked with pain
Tow that barge, lift that bail
Get a little drunk and you land in jail
I get weary and sick of trying
I'm tired of living but scared of dying
That ol' man river
He just keeps rolling along
