《Old Man River(Live At The Roostertail’s Upper Deck/1966)》歌词

[00:00:00] Old Man River (老人河) (Live Stereo 1966 Roostertail) - The Temptations

[00:00:03] Here we all work 'long the Mississippi

[00:00:08] Here we all work while the white boys play

[00:00:16] Gettin' no rest from the dawn till the sunset

[00:00:22] Gettin' no rest till the judgment day

[00:00:28] You don't look up you don't look down

[00:00:31] You don't dare make the rich boss frown

[00:00:34] Bend your knees and bow your head

[00:00:39] And tote that barge until you're dead

[00:00:48] Let me go away from the Mississippi

[00:00:57] Let me go away from the rich man boss

[00:01:08] Show me that stream called the River of Jordan

[00:01:18] That's the old stream that I long to cross

[00:01:40] Old Man River Old Man River

[00:01:52] He don't say nothin' he must know somethin'

[00:02:05] Old Man River he just keeps rollin' along

[00:02:27] You know you know he don't plant taters

[00:02:33] And we all know the man don't plant no cotton

[00:02:39] And then then they plant 'em

[00:02:45] Oh the Lord knows they are soon forgotten

[00:02:51] But Old Man River he just keeps rollin' along

[00:03:14] You you and me you know sometimes

[00:03:20] We have to sweat sweat and strain

[00:03:24] Our bodies our bodies are all achin'

[00:03:30] And wracked with a whole lot of pain

[00:03:34] Tote that barge lift that bale you get a little drunk

[00:03:39] And you land in jail

[00:03:55] I gets weary women and so sick of tryin'

[00:04:05] I'm tired of livin' and afraid of dyin'

[00:04:13] But Old Man River he just keeps rollin' a

[00:04:24] Old Man River he just keeps rollin' along
