《Ol’ Man River》歌词

[00:00:00] Ol' Man River - The Broadway Band

[00:00:16] There's an ol' man called De Mississippi

[00:00:20] That's the ol' man that I'd like to be

[00:00:25] What does he care if the world's got troubles

[00:00:29] What does he care if the land ain't free

[00:00:37] Ol' man river that ol' man river

[00:00:44] He must know somepin' but don't say nothin'

[00:00:50] He just keeps rollin' he keeps on rollin' along

[00:01:02] He don't plant taters and he don't plant cotton

[00:01:08] And them what plants 'em is soon forgotten

[00:01:14] But ol' man river he just keeps rollin' along

[00:01:25] You and me we sweat and strain

[00:01:28] Bodies all achin' and wracked with pain

[00:01:32] Tote that barge lift that bale

[00:01:35] Get a little drunk and you lands in jail

[00:01:47] I gets weary and sick of tryin'

[00:01:53] I'm tired of livin' and scared of dyin'

[00:02:01] But ol' man river he just keeps rollin' along

[00:02:15] Here we all work along the Mississippi

[00:02:19] Here we all work while the white folk play

[00:02:23] Pulling them boats from the dawn till sunset

[00:02:28] Getting no rest till the judgment day

[00:02:35] Don't look up and don't look down

[00:02:37] You don't das make the boss man frown

[00:02:41] Bend your knees and bow your head

[00:02:44] And pull that rope until your dead

[00:02:54] Let me go away from the Mississippi

[00:02:59] Let me go away from the white man boss

[00:03:04] Show me that stream called the river Jordan

[00:03:09] That's the old stream that i long to cross

[00:03:20] Ol' man river that ol' man river

[00:03:28] He must know somethin' but don't say nothin'

[00:03:34] He just keeps rollin' he keeps on rollin' along

[00:03:47] He don't plant tatters and he don't plant cotton

[00:03:53] And them what plants them are soon forgotten

[00:03:59] But ol' man river just keeps rolling along

[00:04:11] You and me we sweat and strain

[00:04:14] Body all achin' and racked with pain

[00:04:17] Tote that barge and lift that bail

[00:04:20] You get a little drunk and you lands in jail

[00:04:32] I gets weary and sick of trying

[00:04:40] I'm tired of livin' but I'm scared of dyin'

[00:04:48] But ol' man river he just keeps rolin' along
