Ol' Man River - Frank Sinatra (法兰克·辛纳屈)[00:00:00]
Here we all work 'long the Mississippi[00:00:12]
Here we all work while the white folk play[00:00:16]
Pullin' them boats from the dawn till sunset[00:00:21]
Gettin' no rest till the judgment day[00:00:26]
Don't look up and don't look down[00:00:31]
Ya don't dast make the white boss frown[00:00:35]
Bend your knees and bow your head[00:00:39]
And pull that rope until you're dead[00:00:45]
Let me go away from the Mississippi[00:00:56]
Let me go away from the white man boss[00:01:01]
Show me that stream called the river Jordan[00:01:06]
That's the ol' stream that I long to cross[00:01:13]
Ol' Man River that Ol' Man River[00:01:30]
He don't say nothin' but he must know somethin'[00:01:41]
He just keeps rollin'[00:01:46]
He keeps on rollin' along[00:01:48]
He don't plant taters he don't plant cotton[00:01:58]
And then what plants them are soon forgotten[00:02:06]
But Ol' Man River[00:02:12]
He just keeps on rollin' along[00:02:15]
You and me we sweat and strain[00:02:26]
Body all achin' and racked with pain[00:02:31]
Tote that barge lift that bale[00:02:35]
You get a little drunk and you land in jail[00:02:38]
I get weary and sick of tryin'[00:02:55]
I'm tired of livin' but I'm scared of dyin'[00:03:04]
But Ol' Man River[00:03:11]
He just keeps rollin' along[00:03:15]
