Writer(s): hammerstein/kern
Here we all work long the mississippi
Here we all work while the white folk play
Pullin them boats from the dawn till sunset
Gettin no rest till the judgment day
Dont look up and dont look down
You dont das make the boss man frown
Bend your knees and bow your head
And pull that rope until your dead
Let me go way from the mississippi
Let me go way from the white man boss
Show me that stream called the river jordan
Thats the old stream that I long to cross.
Ol man river, that ol man river
He dont say nothin, but he must know somethin
He just keeps rollin, he keeps on rollin along
He dont plant tatters, and he dont plant cotton
And them what plants em, are soon forgotten
But ol man river, just keeps rollin along
You and me, we sweat and strain
Body all achin and racked with pain
Tote that barge and lift that bail
You get a little drunk and you lands in jail
I gets weary, and sick of trying
Im tired of livin, but Im scared of dyin
But ol man river, he just keeps rolin along Send these lyrics to a friend: |
