Ol' man river. That ol' man river. He must know somethin' But he don't say nothin' That ol' man river he just keeps rollin' 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 rollin' along. You and me We sweat and strain. Body all achin' And wracked with pain. Tote that barge. Lift that bale. Get a little drunk And you land in jail. But I get weary Sick of tryin' Cause I'm tired of livin' But I'm scared of dyin' And ol' man river He just keeps rollin' along.
