Old Man River

Old man river, that old man river, he must know somethin', But He don't say nothin'
That old man river, he just keeps rolling along.

He don't plant tater's,
don't plants cotton.
But them that plants 'em, are soon forgotten, that
Old man river, he just keeps rolling along,

Cause You and me, sweat and strain,
body all achin' and racked with pain,
tote that barge, lift that bail,
get a little drunk,
You'll land in jail.

But im get weary, sick of trying
Cause im tried of livin, but im scared of dyin'
That old man river, he just keeps rollin along.
