| OL' MAN RIVER WRITERS OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN 11, JEROME KERN Here we all work 'long the Mississippi Here we all work while the white boys play Gettin no rest from the dawn till sunset Gettin no rest till the judgment day You don't look up, you don't look down You don't dare make the rich boss frown Bend your knees and bow your head And tote that barge until you're dead Let me go 'way from the Mississippi Let me go 'way from the rich man boss Show me that stream called the River Jordan That's the old stream that I long to cross Ol' Man River, Ol' Man River He don't say nothin, he must know somethin Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin' along You know, you know he don't plant taters And we all know the man don't plant no cotton And then, and then what plants 'em, all know is soon forgotten But Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin' along You, you and me You know sometimes we have to we have to sweat, sweat and strain Our bodies, our bodies are all achin' and wracked with a whole lot of pain Tote that barge, lift that bale, you get a little drunk And you land in ja-ail I get weary and so sick of tryin' I'm tired of livin', and fraid of dyin' But Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin' a- Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin' along, ooh | |
