Ol' Man River

Jerome Kern / Oscar Hammerstein II

Ol' man river
Dat ol' man river
Don't stand nothin'
Don't do nothin'
He jes'keeps rollin'
He keeps on rollin' along

He don' plant taters/tators
He don't plant cotton
An' dem dat plants'em
Is soon forgotten
But ol'man river
He jes keeps rollin'along

You an'me, we sweat an' strain
Body all achin' an' racket wid pain
Tote dat barge!
Lif' dat bale!
Git a little drunk
An' you land in jail

Ah gits weary
An' sick of tryin'
Ah'm tired of livin'
An' skeered of dyin'
But ol' man river
He jes'keeps rolling' along
