Rod Stewart - Ol' Man River - Текст песни

(oscar hammerstein ii and jerome kern)

Old man river, that old man river,
He donв't say nothinв', but he must know somethinв'
That old man river, he just keeps rolling along.

He donв't plant taterв's,
And we all know he donв't pick cotton.
But them that plant в'em, are soon forgotten, that
Old man river, he just keeps rolling along, oh yes he does.

You and me, we sweat and toil,
Our bodies all achinв' and racked with pain, now listen!
Lift that bar, youв'd better, tote that bail,
And if yaв' get a little drunk,
Youв'll land in jail.

Iв'm so weary, and sick of tryinв',
Iв'm tired of livinв', but afraid of dyinв'.
That, that god-darnв' old river, he just keeps rolling along.
Keep on rollinв' along.

Keep on rollinв' along.
Old man river donв't you stop your way.
Keep on runninв' from the north, the south, the east or west,
You gotta roll it ...
