Ol' Man River Lyrics - The Concert Sinatra - Frank Sinatra

Here we all work 'long the Mississippi 

Here we all work while the white folk play 

Pullin' them boats from the dawn 'til sunset 

Gettin' no rest 'til the judgment day 

Don't look up and don't look down 

You don't das make the white boss frown 

Bend your knees and bow your head 

And pull that rope until you're dead 

Let me go 'way from the Mississippi 

Let me go 'way from the white man boss 

Show me that stream called the River Jordan 

That's the old stream that I long to cross

Ol' Man River, that Ol' Man River 

He must know somethin' but he don't say nothin' 

He just keeps rollin', he keeps on rollin' along 

He don't plant tatters and he don't plant cotton 

And them what plants 'em is soon forgotten 

But Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin' along 

You and me, we sweat and strain 

Body all achin' and racked with pain 

Tote that barge, lift that bail 

Get a little drunk and you lands in jail 

I gets weary and so sick of tryin' 

I'm tired of livin' and I'm feared of dyin' 

And Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin' along
