Ol' Man River

Ol' Man River - The Ravens

Ol' man river ol' man river

He must know something but he don't say nothing

He just keeps rolling

He keeps on rolling along

He don't plant taters he don't plant cotton

And them that plants them is soon forgotten

But ol' man river

Keeps on He just keeps rolling along

You and i we sweat and strain

Body all aching and wracked with pain

Tote that barge Lift that bale

You get a little drunk and you land in jail

I get weary and sick of trying

I'm tired of living and scared of dying

But ol' man river

He just keeps on just rolling along

You and i we sweat and strain

Body all aching and wracked with pain

Tote that barge Lift that bale

You get a little drunk and you land in jail

I get weary and sick of trying

I'm tired of living and scared of dying

But ol' man river

He just keeps rolling along
