Lyrics

[Verse 1] Ol' Man River, that Ol' Man River Don't say nothing, don't do nothing He just keeps rollin', he keeps on rollin' along [Verse 2] He don't plant taters, and he don't plant cotton And them what plants 'em is soon forgotten But Ol' Man River, jest keeps rollin' along [Verse 3] You and me, we sweat and we strain Our bodies all aching and we're wracked so wracked with pain Tote that barge and lift, lift that bale Ya get a little drunk and ya lands, ya lands in jail I'm weary and I'm sick of trying I'm scared of living, and I'm scared of dying And Ol' Man River, he just, he keeps on rolling along, along
