Текст (слова) песни: Jane Siberry - Ol` Man River



Here we all work `long the Mississippi
Here we all work while the white folks play
Pullin` them boats from the dawn `til sunset
Gettin` no rest `til the judgment day

Don`t look up, don`t look down
You don`t dare make the bossman frown
Bend your knees, bow your head
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 ol` stream that I long to cross

Ol` Man River, that Ol` Man River
He don`t say nothin`, but he must know somethin`
He just keeps rollin`, he keeps on rollin` along

He don`t plant taters and he don`t plant cotton
And then what plants `em are soon forgotten
But Ol` Man River, he just keeps rollin` along

You and me, we sweat and strain
Body all achin` and racked with pain
Tote that barge and lift that bale
You get a little drunk and you land in jail

I gets weary and sick of tryin`
I`m tired of living but I`m scared of dyin`
And Ol` Man River, he just keeps rollin` along
Ol` Man River...
