Ol' man river, that ol' man river
He don't say nothing, but he must know something
Ol' man river
He just keeps rollin' along

He don' plant taters, he don't plant cotton
And them that plants 'em they're soon forgotten
But ol' man river
He just keeps rollin' along

You and me, we sweat and strain
Bodies are aching and wracked with pain
Tote that barge, you lift that bale
If you get drunk, you land in jail

I get weary, I'm sick of trying
I get sick of tring but afraid of dying
Ol' man river
He just keeps rollin' along
