Current song lyrics
Here we all work 'long the Mississippi <br />Here we all work while the white folk play <br />Pulling' them boats from the dawn till sunset <br />Getting no rest till the judgement day <br />Don't look up and don't look down <br />You don't dare make the white boss frown <br />Bend your knees and bow your head <br />And pull that rope until you're dead <br />Let me go 'way from the Mississippi <br />Let me go 'way from the white man boss <br />Show me that stream called the River Jordan <br />That's the old stream that I long to cross <br />Old Man River, that Old Man River <br />He must know something, but he don't say nothing <br />He just keeps rolling, he keeps on rolling along <br />He don't plant taters, and he don't plant cotton <br />And them what plants 'em is soon forgotten <br />But Old Man River, jest keeps rolling along <br />You and me, we sweat and strain <br />Bodies all aching and wracked with pain <br />Tote that barge and lift that bale <br />You get a little drunk and you land in jail <br />I get weary and so sick of trying <br />I'm tired of living, but I'm feared of dying <br />And Old Man River, he just keeps rolling along
