ฟังเพลงOl' Man River

Ol' Man River - Paul Robeson

Darkies all work on the Mississippi

Darkies all work while the white folks play

Pullin' dose boats from the dawn till the sunset

Gettin' no rest till the judgment day

Don't look up and 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 away from the Mississippi

Let me go away from the wise man boss

Show me that stream called the River of Jordan

That's the old stream that I long to cross

Old Man River

That Old Man River

He doesn't say nothin' he must know somethin'

He just keeps rollin'

He keeps on rollin'

A long ol' river forever keeps rollin' on

He don't plant taters

He don't plant cotton

And then they plant 'em

Is soon forgotten

But Ol' Man River

He just keeps rollin'

A long ol' river keeps hearing that song

You and me we sweat and strain

Body all achin' and racked with pain

Tote that barge lift that bale

You gets a little drunk

And you land in jail

I get weary and sick of tryin'

I'm tired of livin' and scared of dyin'

But Ol' Man River he just keeps rollin' along
