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 and don't look down
Ya don't dast make the white boss frown
Bend
your knees and bow your head
And pull that rope until you're 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
That's the old stream that I long to cross
Ol' Man
River, that 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, and he don't plant cotton
And
them what plants 'em is soon forgotten
But Ol' Man River, jest 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 ja-ail
I gets weary and so sick of
tryin'
I'm tired of livin', but I'm feared of dyin'
And Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin'
along
