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 Don't look up An' don't look down You don't dast make the white boss frown Bend your knees An' bow your head And pull that rope until you're dead
Ol' Man River Dat Ol' Man River He must know somepin', But he don't say nothin' He just keeps rollin', He keeps on rollin' along He don't plant taters, He don't plant cotton An' them what plants 'Em is soon forgotten But Ol' Man River, He Just keeps rollin' along.
You and me, we sweat and strain Bodies all achin' and wracked with pain Tote that barge and lift that bale Ya get a little drunk and ya lands in jail
I gets weary An' so sick of tryin' I'm tired of livin', But I'm feared of dyin' An' Ol' Man River, He just keeps rollin' along.
