Ole Man River - Frank Sinatra[00:00:00]
Written by:J. Kerne/Hammerstein[00:00:01]
Here we all work long the Mississippi[00:00:04]
Here we all work while the white folk play[00:00:09]
Pullin' them boats from the dawn till sunset[00:00:14]
Gettin' no rest till the judgment day[00:00:19]
Don't look up and don't look down[00:00:23]
Ya don't dast make the white boss frown[00:00:27]
Bend your knees and bow your head[00:00:33]
And pull that rope until you're dead[00:00:38]
Let me go way from the Mississippi[00:00:49]
Let me go way from the white man boss[00:00:54]
Show me that stream called the River Jordan[00:00:59]
That's the old stream that I long to cross[00:01:06]
Ole Man River that Ole Man River[00:01:25]
He must know somepin' but he don't say nothin'[00:01:34]
He just keeps rollin' he keeps on rollin' along[00:01:40]
He don't plant taters and he don't plant cotton[00:01:55]
And them what plants them is soon forgotten[00:02:03]
But Ole Man River jest keeps rollin' along[00:02:10]
You and me we sweat and strain[00:02:25]
Bodies all achin' and wracked with pain[00:02:29]
Tote that barge and lift that bale[00:02:33]
Ya get a little drunk and ya lands in ja ail[00:02:37]
I gets weary and so sick of tryin'[00:02:53]
I'm tired of livin' but I'm feared of dyin'[00:03:02]
And Ole Man River he just keeps rollin' along[00:03:09]
