"Ol' Man River" Lyrics

Rolling along
Rolling along
Rolling along
Hmmm
Old man river
That old man river
He don't say nothing but he must know something
For old man river he just keeps rolling along
He don't plant taters
He don't pick cotton
And them that plants 'em they're soon forgotten
While old man river he jest keeps rolling along

You and me
We sweat and strain
Body all aching and racked with pain
Towed that bargem
Lift the bail
Get a little drunk and you land in jail
I get weary and sick of trying
I'm tired of living and afraid of dying
While old man river he just keeps rolling along
