Rolling along, rolling along, rolling along
|
Hm, old man river, that old man river
|
He don't say nothing, but he must know something
|
For old man river, he just keeps rolling along
|
He don't plant taters, he don't pick cotton
|
And them that plants em they're soon forgotten
|
While old man river, he jest keeps rolling along
|
|
You and me, we sweat and strain
|
Body all aching and racked with pain
|
Towed that bargem lift the bail
|
Get a little drunk and you land in jail
|
In get weary and sick of trying
|
I'm tired of living and afraid of dying
|
While old man river he just keeps rolling along
|
